Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso adidas nel mese di lug 2016
Colloquio
First you must submit an online application with a short essay answering the question posed. If successful you are then invited to sit a video interview where the questions are pre-recorded and you have an allotted time to answer. As I remember, they were five questions at this stage regarding your interest in the company and your capabilities. The third stage is a phone interview that lasts around 30 minutes and it focuses on your competencies and your fit to the company.

Some of the questions for the phone interview where:
- What experience do you have in the section you've applied for?
- Why this job?
- Best skills for the job?
- Who is your favourite athlete?
- What are some improvements adidas should consider in this department?
The interview was online and pre-recorded. The question would flash up on the screen, you would have 30 seconds to think of what you want to say, and then your answer would be recorded.

Colloquio
The whole process takes rather long - applied in February, had an online interview (8 questions - mostly about the company and what they could improve, what I like about the brand and also about previous achievements and why I feel like a good fit for the role), then had to submit a solution for a business challenge. After 3 weeks I got invited to the assessment center.
AC - 3 tasks:
1. 45 minutes of mutual coaching in teams of 5 to prepare a 2 min speech each (about ourselves and our journey with the brand), that later had to be presented on the stage in the foyer of the global HQ.
2. Initially, 2 hours (later cut to 1.5 to create pressure) to come up with a new product for a freely chosen market in a freely chosen category. And then presentation of the results. Again, in a group of 5.
3. 20 min individual interview with 2-3 representants.
Overall, I was really happy with the process, but the feedback after the AC was a disappointment. I got a 2 min call, the feedback consisted of approx 3 sentences. I would have appretiated a more complex feedback.
