❓ What process can you expect for your tech job interview ❓ Tech interviews can be slightly different than interviewing in other sectors, as you often need to prove your experience through practical testing and screening. Many tech interviews also begin way before you meet in person! 1️⃣ It’s very common to undertake initial screening calls. These can often be 15 minutes with the hiring manager or one of the team leads to discuss your skills as listed on the CV. Tech jobs often come with specific requirements, as you are commonly working with an established tech stack. These screening calls can include some very quick-fire questions about your technical skillset and capabilities. 2️⃣ Once you have progressed from that stage, you may be given a task such as reviewing code or writing your own. This is to establish if you have the skills required. 3️⃣ From there, you can go on to in-person interviews and meetings with the wider team. This is really to establish if you are a cultural fit. You’ve already proven your skillset so now they want to see if your values align with the business as a whole. If you're heading to an interview this week, good luck! #interviewtips #interviewadvice

What a superb morning at Talking HR with Cathedral Appointments. It was great to hear from our speakers and guests on how they are 'Navigating the New Normal, tackling the changing shift from onsite to hybrid and remote working.
Is hybrid working the way forward? That was the topic on everyone's minds yesterday at our second Talking HR with Cathedral Appointments event!

We are hugely grateful to our speakers Su Apps, Helen Blackmore, Lucy Clemas MA, MCIPD and our very own director Clodagh Murphy for giving up their time to share their experiences.👏 Our event was also in support of our charity of the year Balloons (Devon) - thank you for your donations to their fantastic work.
