      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at National Grid (Brentwood, NY) in Jun 2015

      Interview

      A bit long and confusing. First applied online after the job posting went external. Heard back in about 2 weeks. Brought in to take the pre-employment screening exam. Once exam was passed, recruiter reached out to me to schedule an interview for the position. Interview occurred at the Brentwood offices and constitued a panel of 3 hiring managers all of which were incredibly experienced and knowledgeable about the position. Each had been working with National Grid for over 20 years. Interview took around an hour total to complete. Questions were sort of difficult but the hiring managers detailed how to best approach and answer the questions. They preferred STAR or SOAR formats for answering the questions. Most questions dealt with experience but some were behavioral. I recieved an offer about 2 weeks later contingent upon successful drug testing and background check. I accepted the offer.
