I applied online. I interviewed at The Department for Education (UK) (London, England) in Dec 2020

Virtual panel interview that took 30 minutes. Prepare answers to common questions using the STAR technique. 2 policy professionals and 1 HR person. Overall very professional and slick. I would definitely apply again and would be happy to be interviewed this way.
