Stage 1 - CV review Stage 2 - HR Screening - very friendly and helpful HR interviewer. Very facilitating and genuinely wants you to do well. Also, offered help with career progression consultation during this initial conversation. Offered help to prepare me for the hiring manager interview. Stage 3 - Practical task. HR provided me with a data set that had to be analysed and a presentation prepared for a debrief during the hiring manager interview. I didn't find it difficult, but it does take a bit of time to prepare the task. Stage 4 - Debrief + competency based interview. The interview was with members of the team I was applying to join. To me this was a green flag, meaning there is trust within the team members and the hiring manager for the team members to evaluate if the new member (in this case myself) would be a good fit. They provided a recommendation for a further interview. Stage 5 - Interview with the hiring manager. In my case it was an interview with the team HoD and his Director. Very pleasant and facilitating people. They wanted me to do well and supported me with guiding questions when I stumbled a couple of times. They were open and answered all my questions too and the conversation went two way. Stage 6 - In my case this was rejection. This was through a standard email without any additional motivation of why they made this decision and what I could do better in future interviews, which was a little disappointing given the time and attention I invested in this process.
