The whole process has lasted around 2 months for me. Starts with CV screening and basic motivational questions, then followed up with online assessment (intelligence/aptitude, situational and behavioural/match with ING Orange Code). Throughout the selection process, you are contacted multiple times by recruiter who guides you through the process and prepares you for each stage which felt personal and increased my appreciation for this company. Then you are invited to the in-office 1-hour interview with trainee manager and (previous) trainee, where they ask you a lot about motivation for this role, for particular domain of your choice, and a lot of situational questions (Tell me about time...). Use STARR method, and pro tip: prepare examples in advance, mostly based on your core competencies highlighted after online assessment, because you won't have enough time to think of it on spot. Last stage in this selection process is the business panel, but to which I was not invited.

It was nice and chill, but some technical questions exist, still need to prepare well. Mostly focused on motivation and general knowledge about bank. Soft skills matter a lot. But in general, more like sharing ideas.
