Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso British Council (Manchester, Inghilterra) nel mese di gen 2016
Colloquio
Its competency based. Detailed definitions of all competencies are made available with job adverts and should be referred to throughout application and interview process. Each competency is defined at various levels with positive and negative indicators. Standard stuff for UK public / not-for-profit sectors but might be a surprise for those with a different background.

Motivation for applying for the role and highlight your most relevant career moments
Poor communication, too many people involved in the overall process to set up interview. It just seems to be jumping through a lot of hoops. So it was a stressful experience

Colloquio
I interviewed on 22 July and was told I would be informed of the outcome on 25 July. After several follow up emails and being told to continue waiting I was finally rejected on 8 August, two weeks after being told the decision would be made. It was quite obvious that the job had been offered to someone else and they were deciding, but the lack of transparency in the interview process and disregard for the candidate experience is really disappointing and has given me a poor view of the organisation as a whole.
For what I experienced: you need to send the cv via the official site. Check the deadline well, including which time they are using for the deadline (local or UK time, if not UK based).
