Application

I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Rio Tinto (Perth, Australia Occidental) in Oct 2018

Interview

Bunch of online assessments, video interview and then a phone interview. Phone interview was with manager on site - poor overall interview due to delays and problems with phone connections. Was a 15 min interview with no technical questions and very basic behavioural questions.

Question 1

Standard behavioral questions, about safety on minesite, leading teams etc.
