Me postulé en línea. El proceso tomó 4 meses. Acudí a una entrevista en DHL (Bedford, Inglaterra) en mar 2011
Entrevista
I first came across the position at the Placement and Graduate fair in Birmingham. Liking the sound of what I was told I applied online and a few months later I was sent an email saying my application was successful and that I had to complete and online test.
The first test was a math test and I passed that. Then I was told to do an aptitude test. I found this very hard and I thought I had failed it but I didn't!
After this I was told that I was invited to the assessment centre day. Here we would undergo a series of test. First was a group presentation. We were given an business problem and had to come up with a solution and present it to a group of DHL manage who sat watching and assessing us throughout the discussion.
The second test was a normal interview with 2 DHL managers.
Finally, we were given a set of areas that DHL were performing poorly in and told to choose two. We had to present why we had chosen them, how we would improve them and what impact that would have on the business.

Pregunta 1
We were given the core values of DHL before the assessment day and during the interview we were asked question about the values and how we have demonstrated them. Some of them were hard to find a personal example for it.
Primero es una entrevista grupal. No hay comunicación previa, te mandan el enlace directo. Luego es una presencial, tampoco te preguntan disponibilidad, directamente te mandan el día y hora.. Te preguntan tu experiencia y cosas habituales. Exigen demasiado para lo poco que ofrecen de salario. Se trabaja feriados.
The recruitment process consisted of two stages:
The first stage was an online meeting, which provided opportunity for both sides to introduce themselves and discuss my initial suitability for the Technical Safety Officer role. It was a constructive conversation that helped set expectations and confirm mutual interest in progressing further.
The second stage was a face‑to‑face interview at East Midlands Airport. This was a more detailed and rigorous assessment of my understanding of aviation safety. It included a short practical written exercise followed by a series of scenario‑based questions, which allowed me to demonstrate the depth of my experience and how I apply safety principles in practice. The questions were appropriately challenging, fair, and clearly designed to explore my approach to real‑world safety issues. I was also given time at the end to ask my own questions, which the panel answered openly and with clarity.
Across both stages, the DHL interview team were consistently professional, courteous, and welcoming. Their approach helped create a calm and supportive environment, which made the process feel thorough yet relaxed and allowed me to perform at my best.

very friendly, easy questions.
They asked more about my interests and my basic skills, and for the second round, I need to finish a task and present a dashboard in Power BI.
