Hi all

I am new to public service and have been in private sector all my career. Wanted to share my experience while researching for this topic. Have been out of job since 2019 and sent in many applications to ministries and sb over the years but only have had one interview with a sb last time but wasn't successful.

I have just been accepted by a sb during this period and have never expected myself to get a job during this difficult time.

I had an automated video interview, written test, presentation and a final 'live' session with the panel for my whole interview process. HR has been prompt and fast in updating whenever I got through to the next round. The whole interview process from receiving the first call to final offer was 3 weeks.

Good luck to all out there who are job hunting this period and stay positive!
