I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Aviva (Norwich, Angleterre) in Jan 2025
Interview
Very hard interview, I only had 2 days to prepare but felt like I would have needed a month. Extremely hard questions and very long process. Left the interview drained on energy. After applying you receive a call asking a few basic questions like what do you know about Aviva, Why would you like this role. On the phone I was told the interview would be harder than the job itself. You get invited to a second Interview which lasts 2 and a half hours. They will start with some basic information and ask some basic questions like when can you start, notice period etc. Then you will be paired with a worker to listen to calls and ask questions for about an hour. You will then be taken to the actual interview which lasts another hour. They do a typing exercise to test how fast you can type and then there are about 6 questions. You have to answer using the STAR method using detailed examples. Do some research on strength based questions and prepare as many examples as you can. At the end they will give you holiday scenarios, let you read them and then you will have to help recommend a holiday.
The interview process was good. The girl I spoke to was kind, they asked me standard questions for a normal interview. The process was nice and smooth. Didn't have any problems with that.
Virtual interview with competency based questions. Specific examples needed to link to competency questions. Role play undertaken. Interview process Lasted around one hour. Interviewers friendly and put you at ease.
Very long, there were many stages. The day was very chaotic and unorganised.
