I applied online. I interviewed at Clackmannanshire Council (Alloa, Scotland) in May 2026
Interview
10 minute presentation followed by a 35 minute interview, 4 members on the panel, each asking different competency and behavioural interview questions. Offer was given within 3-4 days after interviews.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a process which you identified as being repetative or time-consuming
There were 15 questions, and most of them were similar and related to the position. But I felt that the interviewers were just doing a process; they were not very engaging.
I interviewed at Clackmannanshire Council (Clackmannan, Scotland)
Interview
Very thorough interview process. Should take about 30 to 45 minutes. Don’t get any feedback. Prepare about policy, legislation and past experiences. Use the STAR technique when answering questions as it’s a points based system.
