Interview
Friendly and engaging, The team at Octopus were extremely courteous and welcoming, 1st we had a one on one interview with a 3rd party (Who was just as friendly as supportive) then the group stage with Octopus themselves, It was pleasant seeing employees pop in for a hello and to wish us good luck, All candidates would give a claim to fame fact and some of the stories was absolutely amazing! We had a group task which we would all come together in groups which was great to get to know potential new team mates. Afterwards we had 1 on 1 interview and Q&A session which was super useful. We was then invited to a final interview.
