National Grid graduate scheme 2026
I have applied for the product manager grad role and received a digital interview. I was wondering what is the stage after as the recruitment process mentioned by the company online is different to what is happening to me. Anyone else in the same boat?

I thought there was an online test after the application but no it’s a digital interview so I got it wrong

by Sixy367492Yeah. I started with 2 game based assessments and then the interview.
What games were they and how many questions were you asked ?

@hannaho98 one is a math game basically solving based on the symbols given (addition/division/multiplication) and the second one is basically picking shapes that are similar. Hope that helps

It's called numerosity and shape dance. I did that then completed the video interview. Have not heard back in a month now. Has anyone heard back from for the graduate software developer role?

Hmm I was under the impression that if you receive the "thank you for being proactive.... we hold our Acs from November to April..." email, then you are already in contention for AC. Interesting.
Which scheme did you apply to btw?
