      Vacation Program Interview

      11 Oct 2018
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Perth, Western Australia
      Declined offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Rio Tinto (Perth, Western Australia) in Oct 2018

      Interview

      Bunch of online assessments, video interview and then a phone interview. Phone interview was with manager on site - poor overall interview due to delays and problems with phone connections. Was a 15 min interview with no technical questions and very basic behavioural questions.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Standard behavioral questions, about safety on minesite, leading teams etc.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Rio Tinto (Perth, Western Australia) in Aug 2018

      Interview

      Firstly, online screening occurred, this involved playing a series of behavioural games. The online interview included 6 questions, each for two minutes long. I have been advised this year there will only be four as last year's was too long.

      Question 1

      Tell us about a time you struggled to meet an objective and how you successfully managed to do so.
