The main purpose of our interviews is to:

  • get to know our candidates to decide if they are the right fit
  • help the candidate work out if we are the right fit for them.

Āheitanga - our people capabilities

Āheitanga represent the unique mix of skills, knowledge, experience and behaviours we bring to our work.

Āheitanga focus on:

  • what you know how to do
  • how you use what you know
  • how you adapt to different situations and evolve, based on those experiences.

Āheitanga are a key part of our role descriptions and have different levels depending on the job you do. The different capabilities change how they’re applied in practice.

You’ll get more information about what these capabilities are, along with a guide about using the situation task action result (STAR) technique if you’re accepted for an interview.

We want people who have the desire and ability to adapt and change with us as we continue to evolve as an organisation.
