The interview process included some standard HR questions, looking for psychological edges and discussions about past experiences involving teamwork and managing conflicts with stakeholders, BAs, and end-users. It wasn't focused on the technical aspects of the job at all.

I sent in my CV and cover letter and then got a call inviting me for an interview. It seemed to go well at first. They showed me around the office a bit before the interview. They asked me a lot about my quantitative and qualitative skills and experience. But then the boss spent a lot of time explaining in detail how I would be ordering food for everyone, which I get is part of the job, but they really went on about it. When they showed me an Excel file I'd be using, they just scrolled through it without explaining much about the tasks.

Confirmed questions3 questions
  • Can you detail your experience with Microsoft Office, particularly Excel?
  • Please describe your experience with quantitative skills.
  • Could you elaborate on your qualitative skills and experience?
