I was contacted by a recruiter who interviewed be immediately. It was very informal and basocally him asking general questions regarding my career plans. He went on to invite my to the assessment day. The assessment day is structured really well beginning at 10am and ending at 5pm. The end of the day lasted longer but it was a really fun day. Beginning with an intro presentation by the companies representatives the day started well enough. We was then informed about group tasks and that interviews would run along side these tasks. At first it came across that the room would be split into groups however the entire 23 people room came as one group. A project manager was elected and the tasks split between numerous people. Even organising lunch was a group task. The interviews where one techical and one business and these where focusing on your technical expertise and your academia and expectations in terms of salary.

Telephone interview followed by assessment day. group tasks that were to be achieved by end of day. Tasks included; Design a webpage for a local landmark, take a group photo, write a themed song etc. As a group we were expected to elect a project manager for the day and to organise the taks and a lunch break. The day was good fun and finished around four.
