J'ai postulé en ligne. J'ai passé un entretien chez AXA UK (Londres, Angleterre) en août 2019
Entretien
First interaction you receive from the business is an email with a link saying you have 48 hours to download some app based psychometric test.
Putting aside the the fact that this app seems to crash any electronic device which isn't your phone, the test itself consists of an intense series of minigames which takes some 45 minutes to get done, all are relatively simple but are designed to be time consuming and some seem to set you up to fail.
Terrible recruiting practice to have this as as the first interaction the candidate has with the organisation, very impersonal and shows an obvious lack of appreciate for the candidates time and commitment to interviewing.
Very put off by this initially would probably effect my decision later on in the process.
Thank you for your honest view on the assessment. The online assessment we do measures many different things and although it may appear they are setting you up to fail, they will be measuring for behaviour traits that are linked to the role. I will look into the technical side though to see if their is an issue that needs to be resolved.

The interview process begins with mini games that are basically an aptitude, despite what others say the tests aren’t designed to make you fail, they’re to test your ability along with perseverance. Once you’ve passed that you’ll be invited to a virtual interview (at least I was), the interview will be split into four parts. 1) The dreaded “tell me about yourself” question, along with “why this role”, make sure you research the company before hand, go over your CV sell yourself and make sure your answer are tailored to match the role you’ve applied for. 2) It’s a basic retention test, you’ll be given a member’s (they call their customers members) information , you’ll be encouraged to take notes of the information you’re given, you’re allowed to ask them to repeat sections but not the whole thing then they’ll quiz you on the information. 3) You’ll be given scenario based questions, these questions will test your competence, critical thinking skills and most importantly empathy, remember you’re applying for a health insurance company, you’ll be talking to people dealing the worst times in their lives, it’s important to have empathy. 4) They will give you a run through the training process, benefits of the job along with a salary, they will also give you the opportunity to ask a few questions.
