Online Assessment

You will then be invited to complete an untimed online assessment, designed to understand your potential and approach to learning and work.

This assessment includes:
• 5 written questions reviewed using AI technology, which will provide a recommendation on your fit for the role against defined criteria
• One video question reviewed by a recruiter.

To explore which competencies you will be assessed against during this stage of the assessment process, please visit our Competency guidance documentation.

To find out more about how we use AI during our recruitment process, please see Sapia candidate explainer and our Recruitment Privacy Notice.

We use AI to support early-stage assessment review, specifically written responses, however, recruiters assess all video responses and all later stages, and final hiring decisions are always made by our Hiring Managers.
