Application Process & Interviews at TechnologyOne

Applied via their website. Initial screening with recruitment. Then attended an interview day where I interviewed with a previous graduate and experienced consultant. Then got a tour of the offices.

Online Video interview, then 2 interviews in person.

They explained the role in depth, and they encouraged me to ask questions throughout the interview. It was a very friendly atmosphere and I felt very comfortable through the whole experience.

The interview process was very smooth, Kelsey and Sam both made me feel incredibly welcome and were very friendly! They asked the right question!

What is it like working here? What is the thing you like best about the company?

What did I study at uni? If I could go back, would I study the same thing or something different? Do I enjoy playing with gadgets? Why do I think TechnologyOne is a good fit for me?

Questions about my studies and previous work experience, as well as my aspirations and why I chose to work in IT. The interview was centered around trying to determine if Technology One was a good fit for me.

Nothing out of the ordinary; examples of challenges i've faced and overcome, what would be my strengths and weaknesses and what about software interests me

What my aspirations were, why I wanted to work for the company, what my experience is, how my knowledge of visual studio was, what I did at uni, how I feel I would fit in the company. Fairly basic interview questions.

All about my education, prior experience and future aspirations and goals

Favourite projects inside/outside of university Past software projects that I've worked on Sports/hobbies I'm interested in

About my knowledge and skills. Also about my attitude and resilience to specific situations.

Focus on teamwork, interests and coping with setbacks. Light on the technical side, the company has the stance that if you can get past the technical assignment, you've passed that barrier.

Because the interview is the last step, the intention is to determine if you will fit in the company culture. Its a chance for them to get to know you, and vice versa.

They wanted to know about me. What made me tick? why did I choose to pursue a career in technology? What did I like about coding? what didn�t I like? How did I feel I could bring value to the company?

Behaviour questions.

Where I worked, how I approach difficult positions, how I collaborate with my team and by myself.

Be genuine people will be able to see through lies or false bravado. Remember that the person interviewing you was once in your position. Bring: - Academic histories - Bank Information - Resumes - Printed code samples (with links to your repository) You may not need these but it is good to be prepared. Dress up, wear a suit if you believe it may reflect better on you.

Research the company. If something on the website impresses you or catches your attention, make sure to bring it up (for me it was their gender equality initiatives). Be yourself, let your personality shine through.

Show the interviewers what you're passionate about, and ask questions about everything you want to know. The interview is a two way process, you are being assessed but you also need to determine if you would be happy working at the company.

I believe the company is looking for people with talent but also people who will be a good fit with the culture, so just be yourself

Getting a referral would help. The best way is to become an intern first, as they are often successful graduate applicants. Otherwise, be good at what you do, be confident you can do it, and sell yourself well

C# experience would be a huge help. Engaging with university group projects is essential - programming at TechnologyOne is all about working in a team setting and a surprising amount of socialisation occurs throughout a given day.

Learn about the company, what industries the work in, what SaaS is and why you would want to work for TechnologyOne over a bespoke software solution company.

Be yourself, as culture is a huge part of the company, faking your personality would be a big negative.

Show that you are passionate about being a developer (or any job you apply for) and that you can demonstrate leadership skills.

Make sure you show interest in what you are applying for. If someone talks to you about the possibility of doing particular work, if you want to do it, make sure you show enthusiasm for that work. Otherwise the interviewer might get the impression that you are not interested. There are a lot of different roles here that you might qualify for, and questions will be asked to gauge which one would suit you the best.

Know how to network - half of the people I interviewed with were people I had met at the networking night.

Show your passion in the interview :)

Be honest. They want the real you. They want smart, productive people but they also want people who are real. They want you to be able to work well in a team as well as work autonomously. Come prepared with examples of how you have faced adversity and challenges in life, how you have managed and overcome this, because they want to see how you are able to manage difficult situations. Make sure to smile

Do your research on TechOne.

Research about the company and make sure their values and philosophies align with your own.

Be yourself! List out your strengths, but don't be afraid to list any weaknesses either, this company will find ways to turn those weaknesses into strengths and the people will welcome you with open arms!
