The assessment centre where they brought in potential graduates was run well and an environment was created during this centre where I felt comfortable and relaxed. This helped me focus on the assessment tasks and the interview.
Interview process and the assessment centre was easy to attend, well structured day and clearly communicated.
Very informative throughout the process
The hiring process for a graduate in 2019 comprised an online application and if short-listed, an invitation to the assessment centre in person in canberra for group assessment, an interview and a written assessment. my understanding is the currently there has been added a virtual, one-way interview process after the initial application. the anao assessment centre was one of the best i had attended. people were laid back and welcoming. the group exercise was interesting, comprising a scenario to discuss and work through, and then a short presentation to the panel. for the written assessment, we were given an hour to write up something based on documents given, such as an explanation of graphs, etc. this was focused on aps values and code of conduct.
