Colloquio
A few standard interview questions followed by a role playing exercise. The questions were based on customer service experience and generally quite straightforward. No in depth knowledge of the museum or exhibits was required. The role playing exercise was to imagine you were employed as a VEA, and one of the interviewers pretends to be a visitor with questions, such as where are the toilets, or can you direct me to X gallery. This part of the interview was more how you communicate with them rather than looking for correct answers.

Colloquio
Completed an online application form. A few days after the deadline I received a phone call inviting me to an interview. I then received an email with all the information about the interview process.
On the day of the interview I first took part in a role playing exercise - I had to help a lost 'visitor'. I was given 5 minutes to prepare. I then met with a team leader and manager to answer interview competency questions. Everyone was friendly.
At the end of the interview they said they would be in touch by the end of the week. They did not contact me.
