Interviewing for a new role is an exciting time for anyone. Whether it be for a new role, your first role, a change in career, or returning to work from time out, the interview process brings you the opportunity to showcase your personality, skills and experiences. And for us, the interview process is an opportunity to meet potential new colleagues, to hear diverse perspectives and to learn from others.
We strive to ensure our interview process is barrier free and sets you up for success, as well as being wholly inclusive and robust.
If successful in your application one of our colleagues will invite you to an interview with the hiring manager who you will work with. Our interview process will either be one or two stages and will cover both competency interview questions on our values and technical questions based on the requirements of the role.
Our values underpin our culture and how we do business – they set the parameters of how we expect our people to act with their colleagues, clients and the world at large. Purposefully driven, actively curious and candid, but kind.
A competency interview could be a new experience for you, or it might be a while since you last interviewed for a role. A useful way to answer questions like these is the STARR approach.
We are an inclusive employer and committed to ensure our workforce is representative of our diverse society. We therefore make reasonable adjustments and adaptions to our recruitment process to ensure it is inclusive for anyone who wishes to apply. Examples of reasonable adjustments are not limited to, but could include additional time, flexibility within interview format or accessibility support.
As part of our positive action interview scheme, we will offer an interview to disabled applicants who opt into the scheme on their application, and who meet the minimum criteria for the role as stated in the job advert. This interview will either be with the hiring manager or the recruiter responsible for the role and we can adjust the format of the interview to suit the needs of the individual.
If you wish to apply in a different format, please contact us on experienced.hire.resourcing@uk.gt.com and we will respond using your preferred method of contact, to discuss your application.
We are a Disability Confident Leader and we work very closely with the Business Disability Forum to ensure our recruitment practices are inclusive and open to all. If you would like to speak to anyone (confidentially) about making a reasonable adjustment or our positive action interview scheme, please contact us on the above email address.
We hope this helps you enjoy and get the most out of your interview experience here at Grant Thornton.
Our people make us who we are, and our culture enables them to thrive.
We ask a lot of our people, but we give a lot in return.
