Group Presentation Behavioral
It was a three stage interview process. It consisted of a combination of individual and group interviews (with other potential hires). A scenario was provided the night before the individual interview for you to prep and you would discuss your approach during the one-to-one interview. The group interview had a similar approach but the scenarios were given on the spot and you were monitored while prepping together to see how each person worked on the team.

Behavioral Technical
First, I filled out an online application, detailing my background and why I was applying. Then, I took some online psychometric tests, including verbal and numerical reasoning. The next stage was a video interview focused on the role and my understanding of it. I didn't pass this video interview, so I didn't make it to the final assessment centre stage.

The interview process is quite thorough, starting with an online test that includes psychometric and verbal reasoning. After that, there's a telephone interview conducted by a third-party recruitment company. If you pass that stage, you'll be invited to a 2-day assessment center. This assessment center has 4 main parts: a group exercise, a face-to-face interview, a role-play activity, and a case study exercise.
