Career stories
"I found the Met Office made a real effort to put its values into practice and be inclusive when I had my interview. As someone whose confidence has been blighted by my past – interviews were something I had always struggled with. I would worry about what questions may be asked and how I could best answer them. However, before my interview at the Met Office, they provided me with supplementary information, including details of the panel and an idea of the questions that would be asked. This made such a difference to me, and I felt able to present the best version of myself at interview."
