Application
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Hays (Sydney) in April 2017.
Interview
It was lengthy but great! Definitely gave you a 'decent' insight into the world of recruitment. Feedback was given at the end of every round and received a lot of support from the internal recruiter.
There are generally about 6 stages (you can google what specifically occurs):
1. Phone Interview - Simple questions
2. Face to Face Interview with an Internal Recruiter - Do your research! Demonstrate how well you fit in with their values.
3. Assessment Centre - 1 speech, 1 CV screening activity, 2 role-plays
4. Interview with Managers (office you're working at) - Fairly simple, repeat of stage 2.
5. Interview with Regional Director (your manager's boss) - Fairly simple, repeat of stages 2 & 4.
6. Job Offer/Rejection
Interview Questions
Many organisations are moving away from a traditional hierarchical structure, to a flatter one. Here's a summary of the pros and cons of working in an organisation which has less layers: http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vM0F2
When it comes to career plans, most of us naturally focus our attention on the next step. But what about the step after the next step? Here, Karen Young, Director at Hays UK&I explains why a lateral move could actually be a huge benefit to your career: http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vMlMY
