Pros

Long process but this shows how the company want to ensure that you are right for the job and the job is also right for you! Andrea at instant impact was great throughout the whole recruitment process, she was extremely helpful and always available to contact. The Discovery Day was really enjoyable and informative as you get to meet current Octopus employees. Overall a great hiring process.

Cons

Time consuming but this is because they are very thorough.

Pros

At first I was contacted by Mollie Cross from instant impact who was super friendly and kind to do a phone interview, she then put me through for a video interview which she made me feel really comfortable throughout. After this you were made to complete two psychometric tests which test maths and English(GCSE maths) , once you have completed these you will be then put forward for the discovery day. This was an interview alongside many other candidates and people from the octopus team. One thing I Noticed was each member from the team were so friendly and enthusiastic and really made everyone feel so comfortable with ice breaker tasks and group tasks. My instant impact partner Mollie supported my every step of the way always available if I had a query. The final step was the final call with a member of the octopus team from your location, this was the last piece of confirmation just for them to get to know you as a person . After this I quickly got a response from the octopus team with a job offer, I let Mollie know and she was over the moon for me, I really felt Mollie was rooting for me the whole time and was so supportive.

Cons

Could be quite a long process,

Pros

Octopus Energy have a brillant workforce of happy, enthusiastic employees who really helped take the pressure off during the Discovery Day. I believe that reflects very well of their recruitment agency, Instant Impact who have clearly done a fantastic job. I had one of the most positive recruitment experiences I've ever had from Mollie Cross. Her constant support and encouragement no doubt aided in my progression in all the interview stages, thanks Mollie!

Cons

The recruitment process was fairly long compared to most other company's which can be daunting and a little tiring for the candidates.
