7.4 rating for Recruitment, based on 8 reviews
Please describe the interview process and assessments.
The interview process was quite long, and involved online questioning, online interviews and an all-day assessment
Graduate, Sydney
It was a long process with many interviews and it took a long time to get a contract
Graduate, Sydney
Culture test online (scenarios and your thoughts/actions); online interview with two industry related questions at the end; assessment centre (full day in the office doing industry related activities with fellow peers)
Graduate, Sydney
I completed the application form, after which there were online video interviews completed
Intern, Huntingwood
After submitting the application form, there was an online interview that needed to be completed which was followed by a "face-to-face interview" on zoom. The last stage were the reference checks after which offers were sent out .
Intern, Huntingwood
Submission of a resume, short video responses in the form of an interview and then final zoom interview. A medical check had to be completed before I was hired for safety reasons, as I work on and around the manufacturing floor.
Intern, Sydney
For the graduate program there were several stages. Initially there is the standard CV and personal essay. Then you move to a video recorded q&a online. Finally you have an assessment centre with other finalists where you were given mock scenarios and you had to work collaboratively to come up with solutions.
Graduate, Sydney
Quite challenging - a range of online quiz's, online interviews, online test and an all day workshop with the final graduates
Graduate, Sydney
What questions were you asked in your interviews?
We have four different interviews on the assessment day with approximately 7-10 questions per interview
Graduate, Sydney
I can't remember specific questions because it was a while ago but I do remember talking about things like strengths/developments, past experience and also things that were not necessarily related to work directly (this was probably a way to determine cultural fit)
Graduate, Sydney
We were given scenarios throughout the day of the assessment centre � such as how we would react to different situations with customers, fellow peers and strategy questions related to the future of the company
Graduate, Sydney
tell us about yourself Can you recall a time where you've identified a safety issue
Intern, Huntingwood
-Tell us about yourself? - Tell us about a time that the you had a difficult assignment at uni, and how did you overcome this - What's your favourite Diageo product?
Intern, Huntingwood
It was less about what I knew and more about how would I handle certain situations and people. I really value that Diageo believes we can be taught anything we need and that we should really just hire based on the ability to problem solve, collaborate, and give/take on constructive feedback in high pressure environments.
Graduate, Sydney
Business Case Studies, One on One Interview about job experience, challenges etc.
Graduate, Sydney
Do you have any specific tips and advice for candidates applying to your company? How would you recommend they best prepare?
It would be best to prepare by researching the overview state of the alcohol industry, the Diageo brands and campaigns and the area of work you�re applying for
Graduate, Sydney
Know yourself - be candid and open about your strengths and weaknesses and be clear about what you have gained in your past experience and what you will have to offer to Diageo. Being authentic is highly valued (it is one of our 'official' values) and will go a long way.
Graduate, Sydney
Confidence � have a chat to people and have a laugh!
Graduate, Sydney
Be yourself and show the interviews that you're willing to be a part of a community and have the drive to work hard and are willing to learn
Intern, Huntingwood
Do some research on who Diageo are, a lot of us know a lot of their fantastic brands but we don't know the company behind the brands. What are some of the awards they've received, what are some initiatives in place or what is the history of the company? Make sure you're across the vision set out by the CEO, as this is what drives a lot of the work done within the company!
Intern, Huntingwood
Don't shout just so you're the loudest in the room. Be a leader/facilitator and be the person that makes sure everyone at the table is being heard. Those are the qualities we look for in candidates.
