We will review how well your application matches the requirements of the job. Successful candidates may be contacted in a number of ways.

After the initial application stage, the next step may include any of the following:



Phone interview

We’d like to learn more about you. A member of the recruitment team will contact you over the phone. This should take around 10-15 minutes and we are keen to hear why you want to work with us. This will enable us to access whether to invite you to a face-to-face interview.



Face-to-face or virtual interview

A face-to-face or virtual interview could be next. This will be conducted by an interview panel. The size of the panel will vary depending on the nature of the role in which you are applying for but will include a minimum of two panel members.



Role-related test

Depending on the role, we may ask you to complete some additional assessment exercises. These may be a written exercise, a presentation or even a case study. All will be relevant for assessing your skills in the role you have applied for. Our assessment approach will be clearly outlined in your invitation to interview.
