Long and prescriptive. The competencies are straight forward but the additional questions asked around strengths feel arbitrary and they say you cannot prepare for them. It included a presentation aswell as interview questions.
Very slow process from application to offer, but is to be expected. Overall staff were friendly and because of the civil service competencies it was easy to prepare. All questions were straightforward and no real curveball.
Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 4 semanas. Fui entrevistado pela Home Office (Londres, Inglaterra) em out. de 2020
