Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Electricity Supply Board (ESB).
Electrical Engineer
It was pretty intense. They asked a bunch of questions about placement and if I had encountered many challenges over my time in college and at work, plus some other stuff.
- Can you describe a difficult situation you encountered during college and how you managed it?
- Can you describe a difficult situation you encountered at work and how you managed it?
- Tell me about a challenging situation you faced and your response.
Electrical Engineer
I applied for the Electrical Engineering Graduate Development Programme 2024. First, I took an assessment exam, and about a week later, they invited me for an interview. The interview was challenging; they asked follow-up questions about my answers. I got a rejection email 10 days after the interview. Wanting to improve, I asked for feedback on what skills to develop for future applications. They sent a generic, automated reply stating they don't provide feedback.
- Could you give a short introduction about yourself?
- Can you share some of your successful project experiences?
- Describe a situation where you faced failure; what actions did you and your team take to fix it?
Senior Electrical Engineer
This was a sluggish and boring process overall. The interviewers had a low technical understanding but thought highly of themselves. The salary was low and the whole process from the phone call to the interview time was complicated. The engineers conducting the interview were incompetent and had a limited scope of understanding based on what they'd seen. I don't think it's a place where I would fit in.
- Answer competency questions according to the interviewer's perspective.
