I had a very enjoyable interviewing process. My recruitment officer was very professional but personable.
Graduate, Adelaide - 09 Nov 2023
The interview process was pretty informal for myself. I was referred to the position by someone I studied with who had been working at the company for over a year. It involved me submitting a resume which was followed by a phone interview. Afterwards there was an informal interview at a café followed by a final panel interview a couple weeks later in the office itself. All interviews involved the project manager at the time with the final interview involving my current line manager, an electrical engineer, and the project manager again. There were no assessments involved with my hiring process.

I had previously been a cadet at the company so I wasn't recruited through the formal process for graduates
Graduate, Melbourne - 08 Nov 2023
There were multiple stages, beginning with a questionnaire, which lead into one way video interviews. From here I was selected for a one on one interview. From here I was told that I was accepted for the position.

My interview process was not for the Graduate position, so I can imagine my experience wasn't the same as others. I had a singular interview for an Internship position, which then got upgraded into the Graduate program. Assessments are not something I can really comment on as I don't think I have had any.
Graduate, Adelaide - 06 Nov 2023
The entire recruitment process (after submitting you resume), involved the following:
1. One-way interview to answer 5 questions. 1-minute answer per question.
2. Online two-way interview with the Function Manager, Resourcing Manager, and another graduate. This was for 1.5hrs.

I had an initial interview that I never heard back from, and still didn't hear back after I followed up. Then I applied for the same position again and had to be interviewed again by the same people, after which I was offered the job. Communication was smooth and straightforward after that and through until I started work.

At the time I was interviewed (>2Y ago) the process was very simple (Online application, not arduous and pointless testing "games", interview relevant to the position with those who are ultimately responsible for the project. This may no longer be the case though, from what I've heard.
Graduate, Melbourne - 06 Nov 2023
Took a very long time to get any information about what's happening, where, and how. little information was provided about the role prior to starting
Graduate, Melbourne - 06 Nov 2023
Recruitment happened a good 9 months before the start date, and there was some but limited engagement in this period, maybe there could be some workshops or team building activities to feel more involved in the company before starting.

Initially I had to send in a 1-min video explaining what I knew about BAE Systems. After sending that in, about a week later, I got sent an email saying I had an interview with BAE Systems. Due to Covid restrictions at the time, I had to do my interview over zoom. I was interviewed by two engineers from different teams. After the interview I received a phone-call informing me that I had gotten the internship. At the end of my internship we had to do a presentation summarising out time during the program which led into us being nominated for and showing interest in the graduate program. If you wanted to join the graduate program, your intern manager would nominate you and you would commence your graduate program in the following year, so no other assessment was required for this.

Extensive recruitment process but made you feel great when you achieved the role.
Graduate, Adelaide - 30 Oct 2023
The recruitment process was quite easy and quick. First I submitted my cover letter, CV and academic transcript. Soon after I submitted my application I received an email with a link to complete some filmed interview questions. This involved having the question pop up on the screen and filming my response to it. I was given as many attempts as I wanted to get my answers right before I submitted them. After this I got an invitation to attend a virtual job interview via web ex. Soon after my interview I received the job offer.
I found the whole process very easy and had a job offer in my first semester of my final year of my university degree. This felt great as I was able to relax and just focus on my studies because I knew I had a job lined up ready for once I completed my degree.
Graduate, Adelaide - 29 Oct 2023
It was a good interview and fair and reasonable assessments. The company did not use psychometric testing which I thought was a very good choice. My time was not wasted with 20 different hoops to jump through
Graduate, Adelaide - 27 Oct 2023
There was not a lot of communication post signing but pre start, I think I may have been forgotten about until a few days before my start date. but the interview process was good.
Graduate, Perth - 27 Oct 2023
Couple interviews per usual, nothing that different to the usual process
Graduate, Melbourne - 27 Oct 2023
The interview assessments were standard/acceptable. My only issue was massive wait times between hearing from the talent recruitment at varying stages, including post acceptance.
Graduate, Adelaide - 27 Oct 2023
Had to submit my resume and CL. After that I then had to submit a short 30 second video of myself answering questions. I was then invited to an interview which was with two younger BAE Systems members that asked me standard interview questions. After that BAE Systems went very quiet for about 3+ months until i finally found out that i was accepted.
Graduate, Adelaide - 27 Oct 2023
The interview process was thorough but it took 6 months before i actually started working, which seems fairly long to me.
Graduate, Adelaide - 27 Oct 2023
Very straightforward:
- Submission of your resume
- One way interview recording
- Psychrometric testing
- Interview with hiring managers
- Offer
Follow up was provided at each stage and was friendly, professional and timely.
