I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Octopus Energy in Mar 2022
Interview
Super transparent and clear from the get go. I came through a recruiter, who was very helpful in answering any initial questions. I had an initial chat with the recruiter to make sure I was a good fit (remote). Then a short interview with two PMs (remote). The final interview took place in the office. There were two scenario questions before meeting the CTO. I was given a lot of info on company culture which was great, and my interviewers were very approachable. The overall experience felt like a productive two-way conversation.

I applied online. I interviewed at Octopus Energy (London, England) in Aug 2025
Interview
3 interviews, 2 calls with HR and one call with Senior Product Manager.
Unstructured interviews really, nothing crazy but it was alright, nice people.
They are accommodating as well with timings. Didn't go through in the end and didn't receive any feedback.
