The interviews were more about trying to understand what I was after in a role and my motivations rather than the traditional STAR interview questions. STAR questions after a certain level of experience are not useful as your CV should really tell what you can do in my opinion! A lot of information was shared about what sort of things were needed to be achieved in the role.
