Face to face interview with a panel, asked a series of related questions about role and prev experience related to the role. I was a uni student at the time so was well suited
Straightforward and pleasant. The questions were well prepared and I understood them. There were about 6 questions and also time for me to answer them at the end. Overall it was a good experience despite the outcome.
