I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Unilever in Oct 2016
Interview
Written application, standard psychometric tests. The video application stage seemed straightforward when in fact they wanted very specific boxes ticked with the answers. I did not get progressed to the 1-1 interview stage but another friend that did told me that it was gruelling. Probably for the best as I was not the best corporate fit. I'd prefer a job with P&G in hindsight.
Interview questions [2]
Question 1
Would you be prepared to move back to France for work?
Another company using personality tests and timed maths questions. Personality tests are pseudoscience at best and are poor predictors of job performance. Why I have to do mental maths in the age of calculators and automation, I simply do not know.
I applied online. I interviewed at Unilever (Leatherhead, England) in Nov 2022
Interview
One to one interview. Very relaxed, on teams. Nice environment, was more like a conversation. Lots of “tell me about a time” questions so used the STAR technique. Friendly and not too serious
Several application rounds followed by an interview. Interview questions generally true to other Glassdoor reviews but they do ask follow up questions to ensure you really know about the industry . Relatively fast feedback. You should really have a good idea about the industry and interest in it before hand to be successful.
