I was hired in an unusual year so the recruitment process was highly compressed and I had little notice before I had to move interstate to commence the role. The assessments themselves were within the parameters of the average recruitment style of most Australian graduate programs.

Interview process was really good. The resources provided for interviews were really applicable and helpful. Assessments were expected and relevant to job description

The description on the Policy Futures website is pretty accurate to the stages of the application process. The first stage is just some simple eligibility questions, a resume drop, and a short paragraph or two about your motivation for applying. The online assessments are like most other graduate programs and I would recommend if you think you need adjustments for any reason do reach out to the team and ask for them as it made all the difference for me. For the video interview definitely do the test question seriously to get familiar with the set-up, as talking to a camera can feel a little unnatural. The assessment centres were also ultimately not as stressful or painful as a lot of other assessment centres I have done for other programs. At no point do you feel like you're competing against the other candidates in your group activity and actually quite a few groups all got through together so definitely work together as best as you can and you'll do great.

There were multiple steps but it progressed in a logical order and it was clear what was required. There were also reminder emails and adequate time to complete each step.

It was very standard in terms of any other government graduate program. Being asked to draft a response to an email I think was unique and really valuable.

Interview was a rigorous process. After submitting an application, I was informed I'd made it to the next round where I had to answer to questions. Making it to the next round I had to take a couple of metrics tests: maths, literature, and personality. The next round required a interview to camera answering three questions and writing a draft letter. The final stage was a group interview and a one-on-one interview.

First step is an online application, followed by online testing, a video interview and an assessment centre.

The interview process was quite lengthy. You had to submit a written application. You then were invited to complete psychometric testing, followed by a one-way online interview (4 questions). If successful, you are required to attend an in-person assessment centre which included a group assessment task followed by an individual interview for 30 minutes.
