I applied online. I interviewed at Huntingdonshire District Council (Huntingdon, England) in May 2026
Interview
Interviewed by 2 heads of department.
Value based questions (not many) followed by lots of questions about what the council does (lots of these).
Then some simple and accuracy tests - paper based not computer.

Interview
Teams interview with 3 people on panel, the interview process was explained well before the start. Challenging but fair questions - each member of the panel asked 3 questions, I was given an opportunity to ask my own questions which were answered clearly.

Interview
Formulaic interview and test. Given the immediate feeling that a decision had already been made within 5 minutes of starting the interview proper. Unproofed (lots of mistakes) formulaic rejection email.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Lots of "Give an example of ..." with scenarios being very local government-centric.
