The assessments are designed to provide additional insight into a candidate’s working style and preferences, which can enhance the interview panel's understanding during the final stage of the selection process. These assessments are designed to be unbiased, with no right or wrong answers, and the insights gathered will help inform the interview questions, ensuring a more tailored and effective dialogue in the final round. • The CRU assesses all applicants fairly based on the requirements for the role.
