The interview process was fairly simple with key questions asked related to the job description. I gave a presentation on how I would deliver on a complex project related to the role. The interview also analysed my knowledge of the subject area
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How would you respond to x situation? How would you manage a team and provide support on multiple projects?
Treated terribly by the recruiters there was a connection issue and staff had no patience to wait and ended the call most companies would support people being interviewed in this circumstance. The behaviour of the staff and email responses from staff presented a huge red flag to me about how Samaritan employers treat staff through your actions.
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Samaritans (London, England) in Apr 2024
Interview
Application for first stage and then an interview. Very clear assessment criteria and always against a clear job description. The application questions were sensible and enabled me to write about previous experience. The interview was online and well structured.
