The process took 3 months. I interviewed at The HEINEKEN Company (Londen, Engeland) in Dec 2020
Interview
Started off with submission of CV, where you need to do some psychometric tests and a video interview to submit your application.
Received a call to attend the local assessment center (AC). Consists of 3 parts. This AC is entirely individual, i.e. no need to work with others.
Part 1 is a 45-min interview where they ask situational and behavioural questions, and learn about your motivations.
Part 2 is a 60-min individual presentation, where I was given 40 min to read through a very long extract and devise a proposal for an event. (It is ficticious and unrelated to Heineken). Most people, including myself, couldn't finish it, but I guess they are testing your ability to synthesize and present information under time constraints.
Part 3 is a 20-min reflection where we had to write a simple essay answering questions relating to our experience.
Received an email 2 days later, inviting me to attend the regional AC. This was a lot simpler and less stressful.
Part 1 was simple ice-breaking where we introduced ourselves etc.
Part 2 was a group exercise. We had 15 min to review the exact same case in the local AC, before working together in a group to come up with the exact same proposal. It was much simpler than the local AC because we had many people thinking and contributing at the same time. There were ~15 assessors present throughout, from everywhere within the region.
Received an offer via phone call 2 days later.
I applied online. I interviewed at The HEINEKEN Company in Oct 2020
Interview
numerical and virtual interview. It was timed. You have to be as quick as possible for the numerical. the virtual interview is recorded. It is like a proper video call interview .
A few stages interview process starting with an online application. During take off you can get to know a little bit more about company from recent participants. You have to complete couple of online assessments.
