What are assessment centres?
An assessment centre is viewed by many employers as a more comprehensive and accurate selection process than the traditional one-hour interview. Over one or two days selectors measure you against a set of competencies using a range of methods which can include one-to-one interviews, group activities, psychometric tests, in-tray exercises, case studies and presentations. They may also include social/informal events and information-giving sessions.For more information on what to expect and how to prepare see assessment centres.
