Our community includes graduates, career changers, returners to work, ex-forces personnel and individuals from a variety of professional and educational backgrounds. What brings Spartans together is a shared curiosity, a willingness to learn and a passion for technology.

1. Candidates who pass the initial screening are invited to a telephone interview. In this conversation we'll assess your communication skills, motivation, professionalism, and dive deeper into your goals, interests, and background. Take time to research our company and the role you're applying for.
2. Successful candidates will progress from the telephone interview and be required to complete a series of online assessments. These assessments will evaluate your technical competence in programming and cognitive abilities - with the focus dependent on your selected role.
3. Last stage is a competency interview - an opportunity to showcase clear and confident communication of technical concepts and behavioural competencies, supported by relevant examples. We value those who demonstrate their personality, collaboration, and a growth mindset.
