      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at SSE in Jan 2015

      Interview

      Online application. They stressed the safety aspect. Usual questions. Why do you want this bla bla bla. We are the best company. Bla bla bla. What are our values? Bla bla bla. I spent hours and I mean hours on this. Researched the company. Submitted a totally honest application. It was good. I'm 17. This was the company I'd set my heart on. Good grades at maths, English, physics. What I said they wanted.

      Interview questions [2]

      Question 1

      Online phsychometric test. A bunch of tests where you were told at the start you wouldn't have near enough time to complete them. Maths were easy enough, proof reading was easy enough. Engineering questions when you're 17, just guess work...then the last one..150 questions in 5 mins. All to do with the the way switches are pointing. I got 16 out of 150 and funnily enough my pal who applied answered 3. He got through to the next stage. He's admitted he's not even that bothered and he probably won't even turn up for the practical assessment. To say I am gutted is an understatement.

      Question 2

      SSC was the company I really wanted. To be knocked back after some assessment where I know for fact my friend totally did it for a jolly and got through to the next stage is laughable. Luckily I have been accepted by another company who actually care about who they employ.
