Only one 1-hour interview needed. Very neat interview process. There are enough questions to check the required criteria in JD. Not very deep questions. Covering both technical and behavioural.
It was 5 to 1 interview for me, including managers and tech leads.
I applied online. I interviewed at DHHS Tasmania (Launceston) in Aug 2013
Interview
Written application and face to face interview with 2 staff from the hiring department and 1 from a different department. The interview was pretty reasonable with no particularly difficult questions. There was no deliberate ones to throw you off.

Interview
It was a Standard government interview, however, their was a practical technical component to solve as part of the interview (unusual for government). The HR process was significantly drawn out and the HR staff were completely incompetent and inept.
I had to really drive and prompt the HR team to actually get my employment documentation correct and accepted.
I should have taken that of a sign of things to come
