3 stage application process:
Application
Initial application
Telephone interview
Very straightforward interview. Questions such as what do you know about the company and why IT?
Assessment day 08/08/2014
9.00am - 3.00pm with 1hr lunch
The day was very good and relaxed they aren't trying to trick you. You get a good insight into the business and how the programme would work including a sample contract.
The interviews were straightforward very simple questions, as long as you give examples and show you are motivated and passionate about what you do - you should be fine.
There are 3 tests on the day:
Maths - 20 mental arithmetic. It is worth brushing up on your maths.
Aptitude - a combination of questions in programming, SJT, maths and theory.
Set notation and Venn diagrams - this can be tricky as it's down to interpretation. A booklet is provided to help ease the load but it's still worth to prepare in hindsight.
Overall it was a great day the people there are human and the other candidates were good to work with. I am in mixed moods as to whether I will get an offer as I am unsure about my performance in the remaining tests. However all will be known by Tuesday.
