I applied in-person. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at UK Ministry of Defence (Glasgow, Scotland) in Jan 2015
Interview
NO interview process, based on previous experience understood through previous annual reports and an online record of competencies. Very rarely are interviews required unless it is a very high profile position.
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UK Ministry of Defence in Sept 2012
Interview
An internal move that required a conversation with my manning agency. A simple discussion highlighting my skills and why I would be suitable for the job in terms of benefits to the organisation and my career profile within the MOD. Timing was the most important factor to align with the outflow of the current post incumbent therefore research on when people are moving is a good idea.
