I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at NextEra Energy, Inc. in Apr 2026
Interview
Friendly recruiter, friendly hiring manager, told me they wanted to move forward fast cause they had multiple people fall through for the position already. Took PTO for the interview after I already spoke to the Hiring Manager and the Recruiter on the phone. 1.5 hours of my time for a group interview with 3 people total, came through a personal referral after my initial application... and then absolute radio silence for 4+ weeks. Did not even receive an automatic rejection e-mail. The interview itself was a range of technical questions, asking about theoretical knowledge (e.g. what is the law of Ohm) to practical (How do you use a Volt Meter?).
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at NextEra Energy, Inc. in May 2025
Interview
Normal interview process with a recruiter screening, hiring manager, and then site manager interview. They were on time and asked relevant questions to the industry. This covered troubleshooting, safety related things, and behavioral questions.
I applied through university. I interviewed at NextEra Energy, Inc. in Mar 2026
Interview
Met actual engineers through UCF career fair where I received an invite to interview the day after. I ultimately got a call back from HR to schedule 2 extra interviews. The first being 30 min with regional managers and the second being an hour with the actual team. Predominantly behavioral and clarification on past work. They are predominantly looking for willing engineers to teach. Be willing to work.
