      Exams Assistant Interview

      Jan 26, 2014
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer

      Application

      I interviewed at British Council

      Interview

      Applied after finding vacancy on line. Had a response within a few days and was called to interview the next week. The interview itself was around 45 minutes long. As the position was based in Paris, questions were asked in both English and French which was a little daunting at first.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      No unexpected questions - all questions were based around the competencies that were in the original application.

      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at British Council in Jan 2019

      Interview

      Panel interview over the phone during which three staff members asked me between 2-3 questions each. They gave me an opportunity to ask any questions I might have and explained what the process is like going forward. A week after the interview, I got invited for an in-person chat with the supervisor, during which I completed an exercise (composing an email sample and catching mistakes in a spreadsheet). After checking my references, I got the position.
