Application Process & Interviews at Suntory Oceania

The hiring process is a great eye opener on what Frucor Suntory is all about - it is not just an assessment process for our recruitment team, but it is also an opportunity for grads to assess Frucor as an employer. The recruitment process involves an online virtual interview, and the in-person discovery and assessment day where you will be invited to our offices to learn more about the company and the role. As part of the discovery day, candidates also complete an interview, and case study/group activity.

It took a long time to confirm the job once I had been offered it, and it was left a little late in the year compared to other companies. The process itself was nice though, getting to go to the office and meet the team for the assessment center was awesome, to get a feel for the place.

We had an assessment day that was very full on but we felt very supported the entire time. It was not daunting at any point and we still knew how to have fun

Firstly a video interview, followed by a interview/workshop session where I presented a case study I had prepared, and was then interviewed by 2 interviewers. This was followed by an interview with the CFO.

Unorganized, very drawn out

Firstly, you submit your CV and Cover Letter. A phone interview is conducted and if successful, you are invited to the assessment centre where interviews will also take place. Following this is the psychometric testing and if all goes well an offer is made.

BE YOURSELF!!!

Literally just be yourself. Make sure you do a bit of self reflective work and prep so you know a bit about Frucor but most importantly be yourself. Our teams here are incredibly inclusive and if you show your point of difference they will welcome you with open arms.

Frucor wants you to bring the best you but also wants you to have the passion to work with them. Bring your excitement and show who you truly are.

BE YOURSELF!

I'd say the key thing would be to relax as the interviewers are very friendly and understand that you might be nervous.

Watch tons of videos of interview tips and advice from YouTube, and be yourself but came prepare.

Researching is a good way to learn about the company, understand if the opportunity offered is what you are looking for and if their values align with yours. Be yourself! It helps us know if Frucor is the right place for you and how you can best add value to the team.

Be yourself in the interview process! It is a great opportunity to show Frucor who you are and what you have.
