We will send you several questions that we would like you to answer in the form of a short 10 minute video, feel free to get as creative as you like.
The assessment centre is a key part of our recruitment process and has three stages.
Initially, you will learn more about our business, meet some of our leaders and hear from current graduates. From there we will move on to completing some group activities and finish with a tour of our workshop (don't worry, we can do this virtually too).
The interview will be with experienced stakeholders currently working in your relevant discipline.
It will be a behavioural style interview, we recommend using the STAR (Situation, Task, Action, Result) method to answer behavioural style questions.
Graduates are provided with a development budget to spend each financial year. This budget will cover off any training requirements for rotations.
Additional core training activities are also scheduled in each year to support the development of self-awareness and interpersonal skills.
Rotations are dependent on your background and the current projects taking place across the business. These will be offered in consultation with you and leaders within the business.
When and where available, you'll be given the opportunity to rotate through Hydro Tasmania, including our regional sites throughout Tasmania, Momentum Energy (Melbourne) and Entura.
Sorry, no.
We are unable to provide assistance for travel and accommodation costs as part of the recruitment process for relocations.
