Has anyone applied to National Grid and took their Online Assessment tests?

yea I did mine like 2 weeks, but didn't pass. My questions were (in short):

1. How you build a relationship with someone
2. A time you set yourself a difficult goal and how you achieved it
3. A time when things didn't go your way during an assignment and how you proceed to change/fix it.
4. A time you had to learn a new skill

There was a fifth one but can't remember it. But above were definitely the toughest. I applied for Commercial analyst and I understand questions might differ slightly depending on the role but pretty sure at least some of the above will come up.
Hope this helps!!

It's such a shame some other people don't say questions they got, either you help or don't, I practically didn't get much help, but If I can help someone else get a job, then that's great - we all know its very difficult esp. right now.

gluck mate!

I had a video interview using Hirevue for the role " higher apprenticeship project development engineer",
The questions were simple competency questions which gave you 4 tries to record your answer
then 4 games which were quite easy
