Application Process & Interviews at Wood.

Video interview was interesting. Wasn't so bad for me, but I imagine some would find it difficult to feel as themselves.

Standard - application, short automated video interviews, 2 hour group assessment centre, then one on one interview. Relatively simple compared to some places, and fair as far as I can tell.

Apply by handing in academic transcript, resume and cover letter. Complete video interview which involves answering 5-6 questions. Move on to assessment centre. Final stage of one-on-one interviews.

Professional interview process. Relevant assessments.

Online Quiz Video recorded response to questionnaire (interview style) Assessment Centre Face to Face interview.

By electronic video to pre-set questions, telephone, group assessment and a final phone interview.

Applied on line with reference from current employee. Was interviewed and a month later offered the job.
