J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 3 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez British Council (Ciudad de Mexico) en avr. 2018
Entretien
I applied through the website and got an invitation only two days after. I went to their headquarters in Mexico City and had a panel interview with 3 members of their staff for about an hour. They were kind and respectful. Questions were complex, be prepared to provide loads of examples about your professional experience.
After the interview they provided me with an project management case which I completed the best I could. Unfortunately my experience in the field was limited and therefore I got the rejection email a few days after.
I requested feedback and they were very kind as to give me a call and explain in detail my performance and why I wasn't chosen. Apparently they were impressed but my experience was more focus on business development rather than educational projects.
The salary was low but benefits seemed really good.
I would highly recommend people to apply for positions at the BC as the process was enjoyable and interesting.
Questions d'entretien [3]
Question 1
Describe when you had to deal with a difficult situation at work.
Poor communication, too many people involved in the overall process to set up interview. It just seems to be jumping through a lot of hoops. So it was a stressful experience
J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez British Council en juil. 2025
Entretien
I interviewed on 22 July and was told I would be informed of the outcome on 25 July. After several follow up emails and being told to continue waiting I was finally rejected on 8 August, two weeks after being told the decision would be made. It was quite obvious that the job had been offered to someone else and they were deciding, but the lack of transparency in the interview process and disregard for the candidate experience is really disappointing and has given me a poor view of the organisation as a whole.
For what I experienced: you need to send the cv via the official site. Check the deadline well, including which time they are using for the deadline (local or UK time, if not UK based).
