I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Vodafone in Jan 2021
Interview
The application process involved 2 stages. The first stage after an online application was a Game-Based assessment plus a video interview. Passing the video interview got me straight to the Assessment Centre, which is the final stage. I had a 1:1 interview with a hiring manager. Then I had to complete two exercises. I had one hour two prepare for each of them, and then explain my plans and decisions in 15-20 minute interview/verbal presentations.

I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Vodafone (London, England) in Jan 2025
Interview
Assessment Centre held in person had to do an interview, presentation and group task. All the materials were provided on the day, and there were about 30 or so people there.
I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Vodafone (Newburn, England) in Feb 2021
Interview
After submitting the initial application (CV only), I was invited to go a video interview which consisted of 5 questions (3 minutes each) and two short games, which I enjoyed.
After a few months, I was invited for an assessment centre which consisted of 3 tasks - a 1:1 interview (45 mins), a presentation for which I was given information to read and present on several key points (1 hour preparation, 15 mins presenting), and a task to come up with an innovative idea about one of Vodafone's core values.
I was not given options, which surprised me, and was given a free choice to develop an idea which aligns with one of Vodafone's values. The information given during the preparation for the innovation task was already on Vodafone's website, so one could potentially prepare for this task prior to the assessment centre (which I did not since I was expecting to be given specific choices).
Overall, I was satisfied with the experience and the application process.
