Behavioral Presentation Group
It started with an online application, followed by a video interview and then an assessment centre. Pretty easy process overall. The video interview was probably the toughest part since not many people make it to the assessment centres. HR at the assessment centre stressed they were looking for people really passionate about AM. The assessment centres included an interview, a group exercise, and an individual presentation.
