The interview process is made up of three components - individual interview, written task and group task. In recent years these tasks have been conducted remotely using video conference software.

The hiring process for a graduate in 2019 comprised an online application and if short-listed, an invitation to the assessment centre in person in Canberra for group assessment, an interview and a written assessment. My understanding is the currently there has been added a virtual, one-way interview process after the initial application. The ANAO assessment centre was one of the best I had attended. People were laid back and welcoming. The group exercise was interesting, comprising a scenario to discuss and work through, and then a short presentation to the panel. For the written assessment, we were given an hour to write up something based on documents given, such as an explanation of graphs, etc. This was focused on APS values and code of conduct.

The interview process was straight forward and the assessments were more complicated with written assessment and group assessments to see how we would work in the organisation.

Interview and assessment process for my graduate intake was well-rounded and fair. It was split in 3 sections: a written task, group task and panel interview. I believe each of the 3 stages is necessary for a comprehensive hiring process and made me feel all the more accomplished and thankful that I received the offer.
