Bristol, EnglandPosted Feb 2026 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

The first step was a written application where I answered questions about myself and my suitability for the role.

After that, I went into online assessments that included numerical tests, situational judgment, and personality tests.

The situational judgment part stood out because I had to record video responses to certain scenarios. It was the most nerve-wracking part, since it wasn’t just choosing an option—it forced me to articulate my thinking in real time on camera. The rest of the process felt more traditional by comparison, but that video recording component clearly set a different tone for the evaluation.
