I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Vodafone (Newbury, England) in Mar 2016
Interview
Online application form, followed by a straightforward On-Demand Video interview, and finally a graduate assessment centre day at Vodafone HQ.
The day was well organised from the start, and you were always aware of what you next activity was, so you never felt lost. Consisted of group activities, one-to-one interviews and an unseen presentation.
We were also given the opportunity to explore the campus and ask questions of the current graduates.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Why do you want to work for Vodafone in the stream you applied for?
5 questions asked, fairly straightforward and easy. Then asked to complete two online assessments afterwards which didn’t take long. Got to re-record answer and was given two minutes
Why Vodafone, why this role etc
Same as other large company interviews. Based online, interviewees were asked about their past experiences and then proceeded with a section on games focused on finding patterns. The process itself was not difficult or time-consuming, however, I would prepare some practice questions before attempting-- to sound confident and prepared.

Question 1
Describe a situation when you had to make a quick decision based on limited information. What action did you take and what was the result?
The Assessment Centre had group, individual then a 1 on 1 interview.
Each task lasted around 45 minutes in total, with plenty of breaks in-between. My session started in the morning with lunch provided after. Great experience all-round.
