I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at National Grid
Interview
Standard HireVue interview with typical behavioral questions and some "games" at the end (memory, shape/pattern recognition, and a version of a personality test. If you pass this, you would be invited by the HR rep to 1 or more online interviews with the hiring team. Know your basic electrical engineering stuff like Ohm's Law and parallel/series resistance. Most of the questions are still behavioral. Then there is a group interview with other candidates applying for other positions where you work together on a case study to propose initiatives that align with company values, sample stakeholder opinions, and feasibility.

The first interview was prerecorded and had standard interview questions.
The final interview was conducted with two engineers who mostly asked the same types of questions. After the second interview there was a "case study" where multiple candidates (for different positions) worked came up with a presentation.
