I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Lloyds Banking Group (Plymouth, England) in Feb 2018
Interview
The interview process was not as difficult as i expected. I was very chatty and myself, and i think thats what they loved about me. Be yourself, regardless of the role. Have a laugh- to show that you're not just a working robot!
I applied online and then completed the online tests, online video interview and then assessment centre. The usual competency questions and what do you know about the bank etc. Overall a good experience!
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lloyds Banking Group (Belfast, Nordirland) in Jul 2019
Interview
I applied via an agency in Belfast. The agency referred me to Lloyds for interview. The interview process was very interesting. Call centres have a high turnover of staff so they are continually recruiting. The challenge is how to select the right people quickly and efficiently. I like the solution that Lloyds have created. The first part is a quick competency-based interview where you work through 5-6 questions online and video your response. You don't have to long to give your answer - only 3 minutes. The challenge is to keep your answers brief because the system will stop recording if you exceed. The next stage is a skills and behaviour assessment on site. You are given a scenario, a computer, phone and pen and paper. You have ten minutes to prepare how you're going to deal with the call. The recruiter then rings you and you act as the rep serving the customer.
