I applied in-person. The process took 2+ months. I interviewed at Tasmanian Government Prison Service (Hobart) in May 2014
Interview
Assessment days- literacy and numeracy, risk aversion and psychometric testing. If you pass that there is a group assessment day where you are run through prison scenarios and do group work activities, as well as give a short speech on a topic with 5 minutes to prepare. Once you have passed that there is a panel interview, and once you have been accepted a medical and fitness test.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
About history of drug use, as I had admitted to drug use in my psychometric test.
