Application Advice:
It's the kick off of the Diageo journey. All the employees related with Sales, Marketing and Strategy Roles should start in this role to have a deep knowledge and understanding of the business. On the field we have an enrichment experience. Every single day, we learn different and new things.
Interview Advice:
Be authentic.
Field Sales Executive, On Trade at DiageoRead the full review »
Application Advice:
Be yourself, sound cliché but they are genuinely looking for people with personality - not people who are experts in their field already, but people who have an aptitude for learning and have that 'spark' of ambition in them.
Interview Advice:
Again, be yourself - speak to everyone and don't be afraid to stand your ground if challenged they want to see that you can well acquit yourself, though be careful to do so in the right way.

CP&A Junior Executive, Customer marketing at DiageoRead the full review »
Application Advice:
Be Authentic, this is one of our core values and it will set you in good stead. Diageo needs to be right for you and equally you right for Diageo so do your research. Show your passion and enthusiasm always.
Interview Advice:
My advice is simply be yourself. It is very easy to tell if someone is being fake or saying things because they think that's what you want to hear. Don't do it. Take a breath and don't get worked up over the interview, it's very easy going and relaxed. Dress appropriately though, no jeans and trainers!
Graduate Trainee, Supply Chain at DiageoRead the full review »
Application Advice:
Know our brands and their purpose. Have a look at our values and our performance ambition if they're available on the corporate website, all employees are aware of these and they say a lot about our culture. Be willing to travel globally and try to have a "growth mindset."
Interview Advice:
As above. The assessment centre or "final audition" is a new process this year which is designed so that you are acting as a business leader and making decisions about the business, you can't prepare for it but just be prepared to have a stretching and challenging yet enjoyable day. It will almost all be group work.
For the video interview I found it helpful to prepare with post it notes and stick these around my laptop screen.

Application Advice:
The Diageo values are very important to the company: read them, understand their meaning and application and check if they are aligned with your own before you apply.
Interview Advice:
Be prepared for a challenging assessment centre. Make sure you come prepared for both group exercises and individual presentations. The time you are given for each task is short make sure you keep that in mind at all times!
Graduate, Supply Chain at DiageoRead the full review »
Application Advice:
Sounds clichéd but definitely be yourself as authenticity is incredibly important.
Let academic achievements take a back seat, as they are looking to see what you have learnt from all different aspects of your life.
Speak to people! Whether it is the other candidates on the assessment day, or the reviewers themselves, as they give the best indication of what working at Diageo is really like.
Treat it as a learning opportunity, even if you don't get the position.
Interview Advice:
It is a two way conversation so ask plenty of (well-informed) questions - you are trying to work out if you are a good fit as much as the reviewer is.
Again, don't just go on about academic achievements - you have done plenty of other things that are better indicators of what you are really like and where your interests truly lie.

Application Advice:
I believe the current policy is to hire for the person, then the function and then the role.
This means that if they like you, but you're not suited to the role then you can still find yourself with a job in another department (as happened to a friend of mine). The flip side though, is that if you're well suited to the role, but you're not the right type of person for Diageo then you won't get any job.
Highlight thinks which make you interesting and your connection and / or interest with the industry. Willingness and/or experience of travelling / living abroad is also a plus, I think.
Interview Advice:
The key, in my view, is to be collaborative, and somebody that people want to work with rather than trying come across as someone who thinks they're the best.

Diageo really values people and the diversity that people can bring to the job. Show them that you are proud to be an individual and that you will always stand up for what you think is right.
Interview Advice:

Innovation Futures Coordinator, Innovation at DiageoRead the full review »
Application Advice:
Put the time and effort into your application and video interviews. Diageo really put time into hiring the right graduates for the programme and expect you to do the same.
Interview Advice:
Be yourself and go for it. The application and interview process can be nerve wrecking and hard at times, but they really do try and get the best out of you. They choose people who will fit into the company well.
For my graduate intake, the interview process included a roleplay, presentation, interview and group exercise. It is a long day, but actually was enjoyable and I felt on the day I had done my best and that is all anyone can do. So that would also be a point of advice, do you best, don't walk out thinking "I could have done this better."

Commercial Gradaute Scheme, Sales Operations at DiageoRead the full review »
Application Advice:
Always do research on the company values and ambitions. It is extremely important to make sure that these match with your own personal ambitions, otherwise you will find yourself working for a company where you do not believe in what you are doing. This will lead to low job satisfaction as well as low productivity, which is not beneficial for you nor the company.
Interview Advice:
Be confident and be yourself. The company is looking for independent people who are prepared to challenge and drive forward new ideas. They do not want clones to come and work for them. Saying this, they are also not looking for people who are overly arrogant in themselves.
ISC Graduate Trainee, Process Support, Elgin at DiageoRead the full review »
Application Advice:
Be yourself and think about what your best qualities are that you have to offer. e.g. You might not influence people by being loud and passionate, you might be more analytical but present well reasoned arguments. In the assessment centre, you need to think about how you can best leverage your personality and skills to influence decisions or team situations.

Application Advice:
Although somewhat of a cliché, being authentic is hugely important when applying as it's imperative to start with a company with which you share similar values and a common purpose. Be passionate about the brands and original in the way in which you articulate this within the application.
Interview Advice:
Know the core values and be able to explain how you have brought these to life previously. Be specific when answering competency questions, what you did and what the result was. Remember that in the assessment cente it's not a test, but a method with which to see how you make decisions, so be authentic when answering questions/completing tasks.

HR Coordinator, HR at DiageoRead the full review »
Application Advice:
Be willing to be entirely flexible on location, and be prepared to be alone. It's very hard to move to an area where you don't know anyone and you only see your team once per month. Sales targets are particularly 'punchy,' so get ready for constant conversations on your performance. You need to be all over your numbers at any given point on any given day.
Interview Advice:
I didn't realise how important maths was for the role, so brush up on your basic skills.
Sales is all about first impressions, so be prepared to do role plays, etc. the usual tasks that take you out of your comfort zone.

Be yourself, sometimes there is a fit and sometimes there isn't. Ask questions about the parts of the company you want to work in as it might not fit everyone (e.g. if you're not globally mobile it might not work for you). Ask about the commercial strategy, as that is top of mind for the whole company.
