I applied online. I interviewed at Vodafone (Porto, Oporto) in Feb 2021
Interview
It was by video questioning but not with a real person, It was a little bit impersonal. If it was interviewed by someone, would it be better. After we had two games to play, one to memorize numbers and letters and other to match images.
Very organised day, along with a welcoming atmosphere. Started the day with introductions meeting Vodafone employees and discussing the future of Vodafone. One-to-one interviews were very relaxed. This was then followed by Individual task were you had 10 minuted to create a marketing campaign based around one of Vodafones products. Finally, the group task was how Vodafone could navigate around a problem one of their products was having.

Question 1
Tell me why you are interested in joining Vodafone
I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Vodafone (Dublino, Dublino) in Apr 2020
Interview
The process is fairly simple. At first, I uploaded my CV onto their website and I was informed I got to the next stage within 2 weeks or so.
The next stage involved a few interview questions where I had to record my answers. This process is given through HireVue. I had about 30sec-1 min to prepare for each question before the recording started. All of the questions were standard behavioural questions that every company uses.
After about 2 weeks time or so I was told I was successful and that I got an opportunity to move on to the Assessment Centre.
This year it was held online due to COVID. I completed the Assessment Centre in April. The assessment consisted of a task we received 24 hours before where we had to use their technology to improve/create something in our world. We had to prepare a verbal presentation for the day of the interview, but a presentation deck was not required. I prepared one anyway, and I think they really appreciated that. The presentation took roughly 30min, and I was asked questions at the end about edge cases, target market, inhibiting factors etc.
Apart from the presentation, I also had a short 30min interview where they asked me behavioural questions and assessed my understanding of the company.
I suggest to anyone reaching the Assessment Centre to prepare a really good presentation and be ready to answer questions about it, as I found I didn't cover all possible edge cases in my answers.
I found out about my success about 6 weeks later.
