Application
I applied online. I interviewed at Department for Business, Energy & Industrial Strategy UK (City of Westminster, England) in February 2019.
Interview
It was a 3 person panel interview. All questions were competency based, covering competencies specified in the job description. Interview was very formal and heavily focused on experience rather than personality and soft skills. Process also involved a 10 minute presentation on a specific example, followed by questions (no powerpoint slides).
