I applied online. I interviewed at British Council in Sep 2022
Interview
The process took long. It took almost 5 to 6 months from the time of application submission. First submitted the application, then didnt hear back for almost 2 months. Just when I thought it's over, got a call for an online interview. After the interview, it took almost a month before I heard back.
Very structured interview with a three member panel. Preparation essential. Friendly atmosphere, enough time for answering and thinking about what is being asked. If unsure what is being asked, ask for clarifications, since some may be vague. Overall a good experience.
