I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Ameren in Mar 2021
Interview
There was a phone interview roughly two weeks after my application covering basic information about myself. Next, a Microsoft team’s interview occurred with a panel of three people. One interviewer was the manager directly overseeing the position and the other two were managers for different locations. They asked 1-2 behavioral (STAR) questions each and then asked one technical question at the end. The technical question was regarding how electricity is produced and distributed to homes. There was a significant time gap between the phone interview and job offer so don’t worry if you don’t hear anything for extended periods of time.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe how electricity is produced and distributed to residential homes.
Not too hard. Helped having good people interviewing me. Asked the basic STAR method questions and there was no follow up interview but got the job. Took a long time to get back to me after initially applying though.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Ameren (Saint Louis, MO) in Feb 2020
Interview
Very relaxed questioning and very conversational. Follows the STAR interview system. Asked a couple of "technical" questions but since it was an associate role the questions were relatively basic. Overall a good experience.
