Interview
Before I went to for my 1:1 interview I had on-line skill test and then Excel test in Nationwide Head Office in Swindon. Interview was contacted using STAR interview technique. Pleasant but formal atmosphere.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Can you please give me an example of your problem solving skills from your previous employment.
The interview process included an online application, video interview, and assessment centre. The assessment centre involved group exercises, behavioural interviews, and discussions. The interviewers were friendly, professional, and supportive throughout the whole process.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Nationwide Building Society
Interview
It was at the head offices. The staff interviewing us there made sure to put us as ease. We were put, as a group of candidates, into a conference room with senior people coming from multiple departments. We had do a group brain-storming exercize at the time. We were also subsequently interviewed one-on-one by several different people.
It was overall a good learning experience.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Nationwide Building Society (Swindon, Wiltshire, South West England, England) in Dec 2015
Interview
For contract role, hour long face to face interview. As this was going via a recruitment agency I had a pre interview wth the recruiter. Again this was a hour long face to face focusing on experience and ensuring activities on my CV were genuine.
After the interview the offer was made the same day before i even goot home, however I understand this is unusual as the work needed was urgent.
