It was pretty standard interview questions, the preinterview assesment centre was mostly fine. The actual interviewer was nice but I didn't feel much connection to the company. Overall it was an ok process.

Name a time you used a team to help you further your career.
Brilliant very professional and slick from the start. Phone then FaceTime to face , found it very soon after I had been successful. Everyone made me feel at ease. Manager seemed really happy to work there which helped me.
