What’s the assessment process?
Once you’ve applied, we’ll review your application and then if successful, we’ll invite you to meet with us virtually for a video interview to get to know you a bit more. The final step will then be a follow up interview or assessment centre which will be held at our Global HQ in Corby. ,
