What advice would you give to someone applying to this role?

- Make sure you know the company and its history. Morgan has a varied product portfolio which is advisable to research.
- Don't answer questions the way you think they should be answered. This will actually make your interview harder! The tests are designed to showcase your strengths and weaknesses - be honest and answer questions quickly based on your 'gut'.

Do you have any interview tips?

- You will need to prepare a self-presentation telling us about you, both in and out of work, and who inspires you. Try to show your personality and don't pick clichéd examples!
- Try to relax and be yourself.
- There are group exercises too, so be aware of your emotional intelligence and ability to both lead and be a valuable member of a team.
