"An organisation is only as exceptional as the people in it, and to get exceptional people, a strong recruitment process is a must."

As a potential candidate you may be interested in understanding our typical recruitment process.

Whilst it’s obviously important to all employers to find the right person for the job, we also give equal importance to ensuring every candidate is given a fair opportunity and a positive employment experience. This essentially starts with the recruitment experience. We have put together a candidate guide so you can learn about our typical recruitment process and practices. It provides information on:

  • The benefits and rewards of working for City of Wolverhampton Council
  • What to expect from the recruitment process
  • How we shortlist and conduct interviews
  • Top tips for candidates
  • How to prepare for a virtual interview using Microsoft Teams (if applicable)
