An assessment day was held for the role of Junior Scrum Master. There were about 20 people there on the day who had applied for the role. I wasn't expecting so many people to be there but I'm glad there was as it was a great opportunity to meet plenty of people. However I think more of an expectation could have been set about this. The first half of the day consisted of an introduction to the team, Giffgaff and the day we were going to have, followed by a few group activities. The first group activity focused on coaching skills and being able to have difficult conversations. The second was a Kanban board simulation game using dice and afterwards we discussed lessons learned. There was a BBQ lunch where everyone was very sociable, this was a great opportunity to speak to the people you would be working with as well as networking with the other applicants. Following lunch came the interviews, the interviews were done in a speed dating style. We had 3 minutes with each member of the team, one question from each person, making 7 questions in total. As someone who usually gets very nervous before or during interviews I really enjoyed this format. There was no time to overthink things or get nervous as you dotted from each interviewer to the next. I found the day really enjoyable and speaking with other applicants afterwards we agreed that we had got value from the day even if we were not offered a position.
