How does someone get hired at Financial Conduct Authority? What are the steps along the way?

Application form and competency based interviews. But warn that the interviewers can be somewhat bias and don’t always fairly assess. They could do more to address fairness in recruitment.

It depends on the level you are interviewing for, however a basic interview will cover FCA values such as backbone, judgement etc. You will be asked to give scenarios and what you did in these situations.
