Just had a phone interview for the Eon Engineering Graduate scheme. I know how useful preparation is so here's what happened...it was 56minutes long btw...

It was a completely fair and professional interview, didn't ask anthing that most 5th year MEngers wouldn't know as long as you do a bit of research. Try and express yourself well, get to the point - he's taking notes.

Good Luck!

Hi Mat-i,

How was your Assessment Centre for E.On in the end? I have one coming up and they told me that I will need to bring an object along with me that can define my character and also show the motivations I have for applying to a career with them! I am completely stuck as what kind of object they are looking for and was hoping you could give me some advice if you also had to do the same!

Cheers.

Eon ended up phoning me to tell me they had cancelled their assessment centre...apparently they weren't taking as many Engineering graduates on last year and had to cut back...after all the time I'd spent with this company I was pretty pissed off. A few months later I got another phonecall inviting me to an interview for the Science and Engineering Excellence Graduate scheme. By that time I'd got another offer so didn't bother going...glad I didn't have to work for a company that outsources every stage of their recruitment! I've ended up with a job with Scottish & Southern Energy.

Thanks for the info Mat-i! Hopefully, the same doesn't happen to me!

and mchihmn3, my AC is Nov 15th in Notts. Its for a Finance position. When is yours and what did you apply to?!

Yeah I havent had a chance to think about what object Im gonna bring yet...Its really tough, because I think they want to see how creative you are etc etc. I was thinking maybe something related to my course and then try and relate it to energy and Eon... but I'm not sure. Have you got any ideas?
