Your practice track for Business Development Associate
at First Gen Corporation

Philippine-specific tips for this role

• ▸ Some candidates might say 'Nag-assume lang po ako ng numbers, hindi po ako sure' which sounds unprepared. Instead, say: 'I based my assumptions on industry benchmarks and publicly available data, and I would stress-test the model with different scenarios.'
• ▸ Some might say 'Magre-Google lang po ako everyday' which sounds passive. Instead, explain a systematic process: 'I would subscribe to specific newsletters, monitor regulator websites, and set up dashboard alerts to track key metrics like capacity additions and tariff changes.'
• ▸ A common mistake is to say 'In-explain ko lang nang paulit-ulit, tapos na-gets din nila.' This suggests you didn't adapt your approach. Better: 'I adjusted my communication by using metaphors, simplifying the data into one main takeaway, and checking for understanding throughout.'
• ▸ Some might say 'Gusto ko po kasi malaki sweldo' or give a generic 'stable company' answer. Instead, be specific: 'I admire First Gen's pioneering role in clean energy, especially the EDC geothermal portfolio, and I want to develop my career in an industry that's critical for the country's growth.'
