The hiring process was very standard. Stage one was a CV and cover letter. This was followed by a phone interview, then a face-to-face video interview. Final stage was a background/police check, then offers.
Graduate, Brisbane - 09 Nov 2023
Process was quite long and probably could have been started earlier to allow for clearance delays. Took a long time to hear back regarding role placement after final interview/testing due to ongoing Project management discussions
Graduate, Other (Please specify) - 09 Nov 2023
Submit resume, interview with recruitment team, interview with manager of department (+a senior and a grad), job offer. Very simple, straightforward, and quick process. No assessments.
Graduate, Melbourne - 09 Nov 2023
A phone interview with a HR rep, then a zoom interview with a current grad and a hiring manager.
Graduate, Melbourne - 08 Nov 2023
Had a few different types of interviews with a few people. Particularly helpful was the interview with a current grad which allowed me to better gauge the company fit as a younger person over a traditional interview with senior team members.
Graduate, Melbourne - 08 Nov 2023
We had a 'chat with a grad', a phone interview with a manager, then a video interview with a manager and a grad. Each interview progressed from less to more formal, but all felt relaxed. The interview questions were fairly standard and there were no technical assessments.
One thing that could be done better is progressing our applications quicker. I was fortunate in that Nova was the company I really wanted to work for, so I didn't apply to any other grad programs, but we didn't receive out outcome until around Oct I believe, so if I had wanted to have back up companies it would have been difficult as it was so late in the year, and many companies required an answer earlier in the year.

These differ per level, but i like how the panel is selected from a range of candidates.
Graduate, Canberra - 08 Nov 2023
The process itself was fine, but there were very big delays in between each stage of hiring and there was no update while waiting. So just sitting and waiting to know if we've progressed.
Graduate, Melbourne - 08 Nov 2023
Very conversational type of interview which helped my to relax and be myself
Graduate, Adelaide - 08 Nov 2023
Standard interview with a psychometric test. Interview was great, it seemed more like a conversation and not an interview. I learnt a lot about the company and its culture from just talking to the interviewers.
Graduate, Melbourne - 08 Nov 2023
The interview process was very formal and appropriate despite taking 5 months from application to job offer. I had phone interviews, video interviews and psychological assessments.
Graduate, Melbourne - 08 Nov 2023
Process from what I can recall went something like:
- Catch up with a current grad
- Interview with a manager and an ex grad
- Online assessment
Graduate, Canberra - 07 Nov 2023
Virtual interview, and online assessment.
Graduate, Canberra - 07 Nov 2023
Interview process really focuses on the individual and the culture fit. Requires written application, a phone interview and virtual interview
Graduate, Brisbane - 07 Nov 2023
One phone call from HR/Early Careers. Two separate video calls from a current graduate and a project lead.
Graduate, Canberra - 07 Nov 2023
From memory, we had a 15min phone interview, followed by a 45min-1hr interview. Then was a psychometric assessment before o_ers were sent out.
Graduate, Melbourne - 03 Nov 2023
Phone interview to start with and then an interview Panel with two experienced members of the company and a graduate.
The Testing was interesting but failed to see relevance to role as it was optional to get the results from the physiatrist.

The hiring process was long, with many stages to pass.
I'd like the hiring team to be more responsive with updates on each stage (in terms of wait time).
Graduate, Brisbane - 01 Nov 2023
A bit too lengthy between contact.
I'm no expert when it comes to security and background checks, and I can understand it does need to be taken seriously when Grads will be attending client site under Nova's banner.
But.
I can see that the time it takes to get sorted is not from everyone and can put off most people.
Job hunting, I had placed my interest in other places during this time and had almost written off Nova during some point.
Graduate, Canberra - 30 Oct 2023
The process was good, however there was a large wait time during the time I got hired.
