The whole process takes nearly two months, starting with the HR phone interview, followed by the Case Study submission, panel interview, director catchup, and then pre-employment checks (including ID, medical, police check and referee checks). After all of that, still didn't get a firm offer.

It was 2 rounds interview which went smoothly.

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Metro Trains (Melbourne) in Sept 2025
Interview
Started with a screening call, then an on-site interview in the CBD with two senior members of the team. Felt more like a conversation, but lots of chat about my background and experience. Fairly casual in nature. I got a call back just under a week later with feedback, and to let me know I was successful. Even though I didn't get the job, everyone was professional, nice, and receptive.
