Few different stages, I got through to the final stage of assessment centre. Prior to the assessment centre I was sent some questionnaires (business attitude questionnaire, motivational driver questionnaire and an online in-tray exercise). I was also sent a case study in preparation for the assessment centre.
The assessment centre included group work and using the case study we were provided with.
