Our recruitment process

When we’re looking to add a new member to our team, we’re not only looking for candidates with outstanding technical skills, we’re also looking for a team fit – someone who is passionate about what we do here at Canstar and is ready to make a difference.

To find this person, we incorporate a number of steps into our recruitment process.

Our interview process gives you the opportunity to meet various people across the business while also giving us the opportunity to get an understanding of your skills and experience as well as your career goals.

First Round Interviews

Your first interview with us will be a face to face with your direct manager and another team member. The first round of interviews generally focuses on your technical skills. It’s also a great opportunity to ask the hiring manager questions about the role. From first round interviews a short list is selected.

Psychometric Testing

The candidates who have made the short list will now complete psychometric testing. The psychometric testing consists of 3 aptitude tests and a Work Personality Index. The 3 aptitude tests include verbal, numeric and abstract reasoning.

Depending on the role, you might also complete a case study task. The case studies are position specific.

Second Interview

Once the testing results are reviewed, successful candidates are invited back into the office for a second interview. This round of interviews is conducted with our People & Culture team and focuses on work culture and behavioural questions. This is another great opportunity to ask questions around the Canstar culture.

Reference Checks

After the final round of testing and interviews a potential candidate is identified and reference checks are then completed.

An Offer

When all reference checks are completed satisfactorily an offer is made and we have a new Canstar member!
