I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Hays (Swansea, Gales) in Jul 2016
Interview
Thorough, very professional and challenging, with several stages in order to clearly understand myself as a candidate, my personality, my experience and my overall goals, to find out if I was the correct and suitable person for the role and company. The overall experience was challenging but satisfying.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Hays (Londres, Inglaterra) in Mar 2016
Interview
The process consisted of 2 open days. The first was a day to get a feel for the company and to review CV's, attend meetings and present as to why you were right for Hays. The second was an assessment centre. This consisted of a mock telephone call to a client, writing a Job ad and role playing selling a candidate into a client.
I applied online. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at Hays (Cheltenham, Inglaterra) in Jun 2016
Interview
I went into the office for an initial first stage interview. It was what I was expecting, we did a bit of role play and I was asked why recruitment and why Hays in particular. They were looking to hire quite soon so instead of the assessment day I was asked back to the office for an individual assessment day type scenario. I did some more role play in front of the Director and Business Manager.
