Interview
The hiring and interview process took a long time and included several interviews (if I remember correctly with the HR Officer, HR Manager, Regional Manager, Office Manager) and a number of tests and an assessment session (which included a role play to test multitasking skills). After all of the tests and conversations, a personality profile was set up and this was discussed as last step of the assessment/testing day, which gave the chance to respond to their findings.
