Online Aptitude Test

It’s really simple to follow and we’ll send you full instructions on what’s involved and how to complete it. Take the time to read the instructions carefully. There is no right or wrong answer, it’s all about how you approach certain situations and your preferred way of working, so just be yourself as you provide your responses.

Video Interview

This stage is designed to identify whether you have the strengths and capabilities that match our opportunities. We’ll send you a link and you’ll partake in an online video interview. This is designed to be as flexible and convenient for you to complete as possible. For this reason, it is asynchronous – that is, there won’t be a live interviewer who you speak to. Instead, the questions are pre-recorded by one of our recruiters. In your own time, you are then able to record your answers using a web camera.

Technical Interview and HR Interview

Final round of selection process is Technical and HR interview. Career prospects, questions related to project, etc. are asked for the section.
