      Difficult Interview
      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Dublin City University (Dublin, Dublin)

      Interview

      Single interview with the hiring manager, department manager, HR representative and external interviewer (in this case someone from a careers team in another university).

      The interview lasted about 40 minutes with each interviewer asking 3-5 questions.

      Questions from HR were competency based. Questions from Team Manager were focused on the job and skills required.
      Questions from the Department Manager were focused on the broader student population and support.
      Questions from the external examiner were around best practice, learning and staying ahead of the curve.

      If you were to launch an initiative for athletes in DCU what would this look like? Tell us about a time you demonstrated team working skills. How do you implement career theory in your practice? How do you stay up to date with key trends in the industry?
