[QUOTE="Jaysen, post: 1005, member: 1"] [B]When was your Memery Crystal interview? [/B] August 2017 [B] What was it for? [/B] Training Contract [B]Please describe the training contract interview process at Memery Crystal.[/B] It was an application form followed by an interview with HR and an associate. [B]What advice would you give to future applicants for the Memery Crysal interview?[/B] Candidates can expect an intensive, fairly scripted interview. The initial focus was on competency questions, which if you have prepared, should be reasonably straightforward. No woolly answers - my response to 'tell us about a time you have gone above and beyond in your work' was critiqued strongly. The current awareness question centred around the BBC pay gap news at the time; be prepared to go in depth and argue your perspective. There was also a question which looked initially like a legal question but was actually basic common-sense. It asked what you would do in a situation where a client has gotten the better of a third party. It was cleverly couched in fairly emotive wording - this led me down a completely wrong avenue, so take a step back when answering and analyse the question. I personally struggled to build a rapport, but I think that was mainly down to my nerves and inexperience at that point. It was a valuable learning curve, but a tough interview. [/QUOTE]
