Octopus Energy presents a promising job posting with good benefits, yet its lack of an HR department raises concerns about potential conflicts of interest, especially considering comments from other reviews on the preferential treatment between specific team members and managers. Additionally, my experience with the phone interview process was disappointing, as the interviewer failed to call initially and the rescheduled interview was cancelled 3 minutes before the time slot. Now they will not proceed with my application despite compromising my first interview. This disregard for candidates' time and a disposable treatment of applicants disgusts me. Extremely relieved I did not give my time and hard work to yet another shortsighted and inconsiderate energy company.

Sehr positive Gesprächsatmosphäre! Die Interviewer waren locker, zugänglich und gut vorbereitet. Besonders positiv ist mir aufgefallen, dass wirklich auf meine Antworten eingegangen wurde, anstatt nur einen Standard-Fragenkatalog abzuarbeiten. Ich habe mich zu jedem Zeitpunkt wertgeschätzt gefühlt.

Fairly intense, hard to adjust to zoom interviews, but an efficient method to decide that ultimately the role wasn't suitable for my particular skills.
Role plays, team tasks etc and 1 to one interviews.

Typical questions you would expect, lots of role play and brainstorm activities.

Very easy and understandable interview. Used an online questionnaire and video interview. Also very good communication and quick response time. Setting up meetings and discovery day was also effortless. Not a stressful interview process.
