Let’s be honest Octopus. You didn’t hire me because I’m not LBGQT. It’s pretty obvious from attending your office, meeting your staff, seeing all the pink and then being patronised when I asked for feedback that this was the reason.
I applied online. I interviewed at Octopus Energy (Berlín)
Interview
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.

Question 1
Erzähl mir von einer Herausforderung, der du gegenüberstandest, und wie du sie gelöst hast.
I applied online. I interviewed at Octopus Energy (Warwick, West Midlands, England)
Interview
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.

Question 1
Typical questions you would expect, lots of role play and brainstorm activities.
I applied through other source. I interviewed at Octopus Energy (Manchester, Inglaterra) in Dec 2025
Interview
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.
