   Interview

   Starts off with presentation about the company. An simple icebreaker is required of each person, it goes around the room (about likes and passions). Then split into groups. Three tasks were given: building a tower from spaghetti and marshmallows, a cluedo style game and a presentation/poem/song about what makes a good employee. No face to face interview or skills based interview. From what was gathered, every person bar one (around 8 altogether) currently already worked for Marston’s got through to the second stage. I get the team-building notion they were going for, but it was very watered down Silicon Valley styled HR “innovation”, especially baffling that it went without any skills or experience based questioning at all. The type of interview where the loudest and most overbearing person in the room excels. Lots of talking over each other, desperation for leading etc. Would recommend actually talking directly to potential employees.

   No single question asked in first stage. Just monitoring of the group tasks.
