I applied online. I interviewed at BRE Group in May 2026
Interview
The interview process comprised of two stages, the first one with AI (Ryan) and the second with the line manager for the role and another manager.
The process was clear and straightforward. Prior to the first interview I was dubious about talking to AI as part of an interview stage, but I then realised it was a beneficial additional step. AI summarized each of my answers with a positive comment on how it met the post criteria, which I found encouraging and helpful in putting what I was saying into perspective.
The virtual interview with the two managers was well managed and they were both friendly, professional and engaged. The questions were relevant and designed to understand my prior experience and the skills relevant to the role, while recognising that I haven't covered that role specifically before.
I enjoyed both processes.
