I came across their graduate schemes through target jobs, then checked their website. The online application process was quite short- It involved uploading your CV onto their system, and choosing a stream of your interest. I received a call two days later from one of their recruiment consultants who scheduled me for a phone interview. Phone interview was short- Usual questions about interest in the company,IT, and personal career goals. Feedback was next day to inform me of success. I beleive success at this stage was based on adequate preparation (and have a handful of good questions to ask). Invitation to the assessment centre followed. You get a breakdown of the events for that day but nothing else is revealed. At the assessment, there was 1 group exercise, 1 technical test ,1 independent note taking exercise, and a panel interview. The group exercise was fairly generic- Who inspires you most and why? present this briefly to the group.Then assume you were that person and you were all in a sinking boat, who would you chuck out and why? a discussion should ensue. Technical test; 50 multiple choice questions to be completed in 1 hr-This tests your technical knowledge in all areas from programming to web development. A minimum score is required. Note taking exercise- A business meeting was shown on video and the task was to write a business style brief/report of the meeting. Panel interview- interviewers were 2 members of the sales team. They ask competency based questions. Overall the day lasted much quicker than expected. The general atmosphere was professional.

The first screening is a HackerRank test. The coding tasks are fairly straightforward; however, you won't be able to access any code documentation during the test, and the online editor can be a bit laggy at times. If you are successful at the assessment, you will receive a phone call with no prior notification, so make sure to pick up calls from unknown numbers. During this call I was asked if I was available to work at both the Sydney and Melbourne offices, as this was a requirement to move forward with the role. In other words, you have to be willing to relocate to be a successful applicant.
