Yes, I completed the video interview. Here are the 5 questions they asked me:
1) Why did you choose Vodafone, and tell me about yourself?
2) Give me an example of when you exceeded your own expectations?
3) Tell me about a time you've found a team or individual challenging to work with and how did you resolve the situation?
4) Tell me about a time when you've had to learn something quickly, like a task or project?
5) Give an example of an idea you came up with and brought to life? What were the circumstances, your actions, and the outcome?

Just to let you know that I applied for a different role. I hope this helps and good luck!

They convert ur speech into a transcript I guess and that is marked. Which is hella flawed since the AI bot can easily make mistakes when converting. You get your feedback literally 10 seconds after completing

I received an email saying I’ve passed the first round and the next round is another numerical test. If we pass the second numerical test it will be the assessment centre for the next round

lol is it actually, i haven't done it yet. i feel like they're just giving the test to everyone who applied tbh, and then they will look at our performance in the VI and everything prior to decide AC offers

Potentially. I know some recruiters ignore the results from past stages though, I.e if you pass stage 1 (which we have), everyone is reset and it’s based on performance in stage 2 and it keeps on like that.
