โ€‹When hiring for a senior or technical role, companies within the busy UK procurement and supply chain sector will be seeking to make a smart and informed hiring decision as the sector evolves and keeps up with emerging technologies and the meteoric rise of ecommerce. This has inspired a growing trend of conducting an all-day interview during recruitment cycles.

This involves a day where candidates will go through multiple interviews through the course of a day with several department heads or stakeholders. This is useful for getting a 360 view of the candidate, alongside being a great opportunity for a candidate to learn as much as possible about their potential employer.
