Interview
An employment agency manages the recruitment process. I had a short chat with an employee of the agency first. Then, I was invited to an interview online with two Senior investigative team members of the SFO. They asked me about my past job experiences and how I would handle challenging situations. The interview was quite straightforward. However, the onboarding process was long as I had to get the national insurance number and pass security clearance.
