Diageo Graduate Trainee interview questions

Diageo has a long traineeship application process, but not unless any other big company does nowadays. - You start with a letter, your CV and six extra questions they ask you to complete. - Next is a video interview, which has taken the place of the telephone interview. You get around 10 questions for which you get a minute each to answer while you being recorded via your webcam. I think the video interview triggers unnecessary stress, and could be done in a different way. For examply by presending questions by email and letting the applications prepare their own video. - A online test - An assessment day The reason I had a bad overall experience during the application process is because Diageo has cut out anything that is a bit personal. Emails are never send from a person but are always 'on the behalf of the team' so you never know who you're talking to. Before the assessment day there is no personal, and with that I mean even a personal email or telephone call, communication with someone from the company. This gives the place an unfriendly and stern image.

Challenging but fun and engaging way of interviewing. Laying your personality across all values and cultural behaviour of Diageo whereby enabling a perfect fit for both sides if succesfull. End stages with assessment centres are very professional and challenging, really gets the best out of you.
