Question 1
I was asked how I handled a situation in the past where I was in conflict with a co-worker and how I handled it.
Super easy it consists of a couple of questions and you record yourself answering them. So I would say it was pretty easy I would recommend it. I would also say that they tend to respond very quick to applications but I guess it depends when they are short staff
