      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at National Grid (Warwick, West Midlands, England) in Jan 2022

      Interview

      Got interviewed 2 times by National Grid for the same position (but different vacancies). Both interview have the same process in general as follows. One time interview only (no follow-up interviews), consists of 3 sections: Icebreaking (background, motivation, etc); technical and case study, and the competency-based sections. 1.5 hours interview, 15 mins for both ice breaking and the competency based, and 1 hour for technical and case study. The interview is not that difficult as long as you know your stuff. But personally, I don't think a fresher stand a chance for the technical interview part (unless you are insanely good).

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Need to understand the impact of VRE penetration to the grid, basic concepts of power flow, short circuit, and stability. Also need to understand the grid impact and grid interconnection studies, Network Option Assessments (NOA), and how to troubleshoot issues in PowerFactory and other similar power flow software packages.
