I was pretty nervous for the interview and assessment centre. But all the staff were super friendly, and it was a fun day. The environment was relaxed. The interview was supposed to be competency-based. Some questions came up. When I didn't know an answer, they told me not to worry and talked about the training they offer. It felt more like a chat than a formal interview.

The HR resourcing team was very professional and made the whole process smooth from applying to the interviews. There were two stages, the first one was on MS Teams. I was impressed with how everything was coordinated and the communication with the resourcing team. The job description was clear and matched what was said in the interviews.
