I applied online. I interviewed at Nationwide Building Society (Northampton, England) in November 2015.
Interview
Competency based interview process where you are asked to highlight certain career aspects using the STAR system (Scenario Task Action Result). These questions will ask you about subjects like innovation, leadership, meeting deadlines and prioritisation. Make sure you are prepared with a few examples as there are 2 sets of questions per category which are worded differently.
Interview Questions
- Can you give an example of a time where you have had to complete a piece of work within an agreed timeframe. Answer Question

To mark #InternationalDisabilityDay and the worldwide hashtag #PurpleLightUp campaign, we took part in a special ad break by Channel 4 to showcase employees from different organisations sharing society’s perceptions and dispelling myths on what being disabled is like in the workplace. If you missed it, here it is, featuring our colleague Tegan. Will you go purple? http://glassdoor.com/slink.htm?key=vQh4p
