Energy Analyst
So, the interview process involved a few steps. They started with some general questions, like asking about my background. Then, they got into more specific questions, really drilling down into my experiences and how they match up with what they're looking for in this role. Finally, they opened it up for me to ask any questions I had.
- Could you give us an overview of your background?
- Can you share your experience with a modeling tool that aligns with the job requirements?
- What questions do you have for us?
Energy Analyst
It was a 3-stage interview process. First, a recruiter called to chat about the team and my background. Then, I had a Teams meeting with the direct supervisor, which was more technical, focusing on software tools I've used and my proficiency. They also asked about handling deadlines and adversity. Finally, I had another Teams meeting with the direct supervisor's supervisor, which felt more like a casual chat about culture fit and personality.
- How do you manage your workload and prioritize tasks?
- What methods do you use to stay organized?
- What's your level of experience with Excel?
Energy Analyst
We had a quick introductory phone call first. Then there was an in-person interview day. It was about 4 interviews, lunch, and a written test. The interviews were pretty chill and conversational. The whole thing felt relaxed, and they seemed to want to see if my background and personality fit the team. I think they're looking for people who are genuinely excited about the energy industry, so showing that enthusiasm is important.
- Can you describe a past project or experience, detailing your contributions, particularly if it involved quantitative analysis or modeling?
