I applied through college or university. I interviewed at Southern Company (Atlanta, GA) in Oct 2020
Interview
3 interviews that were all online. One with several other people getting interviewed in a group. One with 4 person panel. Very professional overall very positive. Didn’t end up getting hired but definitely enjoyed the process
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Southern Company (Birmingham, AL) in May 2016
Interview
Small panel, basic technical/behavioral/person experiences; relatively laid back. Felt more like conversation among panel members as opposed to a "grilling." Quick 30 minutes, in and out. Be prepared with prior work experiences and how you overcame conflict and how well you are able to communicate to external parties.
