Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What are the difficulties when you solve the coding exercise?
Straight forward, 15 min perusal and 30 min for interview. There were 3 questions. The panel was made up of 3 people - director of the team, a principal economist and another principal from another area of treasury.
Interview questions [3]
Question 1
You’ve been asked to urgently pull together a cabinet submission to seek approval for a new investment program, how would you go about it, what would you consider in developing the program
The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Queensland Treasury (Brisbane) in Mar 2023
Interview
It took 3 months to be told in the automated springboard system I was not successfully shortlisted for the Rome. I am part of an under-represented diversity group, with relevant qualifications and 15 years relevant excellent experience in the sector. This is incredibly perplexing. Look at your reviews for interviewing Treasury - they are bad. This isn’t good for your brand, reputation or employer of choice results.
