J'ai passé un entretien chez International Energy Agency (Paris)
Entretien
After the CV screening, there are three seperate rounds/steps. First, there is a recorded online interview (automated questions). Questions are mostly about personal fit, and some general knowledge of the energy industry (and/or more specfic sector depending on the role you are applying to). For modelling positions, the second round is a 2-3 hour excel test (energy modelling). Last round was a panel interview with 3 interviewers (both personal fit and technical questions). Overall process was clear and aligned with job description.
