      Collections Role Interview

      12 Apr 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Manchester, England
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (Manchester, England) in Feb 2016

      Interview

      I completed a lengthy online barrage of questions and situational tests related to various scenarios and what your response would be in these circumstances. This would be to assess if you would handle real life situations in a desired manner and is used to establish your eligibility for the position. Provide real honest answers as ultimately if you get the position you will need to be the person rather than a role player. The interview was very regulated with questions asked where the interviewee was expected to provide historical examples reflecting demonstrable skills that were applicable to the position. This predictable line of questioning could allow one to factory fit themselves for the position by providing the most impressive examples. I stuck to real life historical events.

      Question 1

      Provide an example where you were able to use your influence of a third party to the benefit of the company?
