Pretty simple Application Video interview Assessment centre Assessment centre online, three stages : 1) group exercise. Men was separated from females, two team members sit with their camera off whilst you discuss a topic to present on after about 15 minutes. 2)Interview with one of the people who sat on your room, and they ask how you think you performed and some usually star type questions. You get to ask them questions after Roughly 40 minute breaks throughout all stages. Meet with current mace grads and ask questions. 3)Final case study- 40 minutes to read through and decide on a project and 10 minute presentation to another senior team member this is an individual exercise about why you would pick your project. Can also ask questions after. Debrief and the day is done. Experience: Recruiter / HR wasn’t the friendliest and for that to be the first person you meet really sets the tone for how you experience the assessment centre. The usual over talking you’re told to avoid in assessment centres, in this instance seemed to mean you’re contributing more, didn’t understand why male and females candidates were separated in the group exercise. If you are analysing how well people work in teams best to make it realistic and mix genders. Didnt think the process catered to those with neurodivergence as you’re assessed / graded on the same things across the board, it should be imperative for HR to be hiring candidates who can balance out the workplace rather than be the same across the board. Positive and negative feedback was via phone and recruiter/ HR rushed off the phone pretty fast after providing the bad news. Considering the amount of time and effort going into the interviews you would hope someone would have a little compassion. Overall interview felt cold, maybe would’ve been better in person and where candidates can relax.

I was invited for an initial interview in London. It was a face-to-face interview in Mace's headquarters in London. Two people were interviewing me. They were all very friendly and positive.
