3 interviews and one personality based assessment
Graduate, Sydney
I met my manager at a University career fair and he conducted the first (technical) interview. I then met with the Head of Operations for the second round and finally was interviewed by the Group Executive. The second and third interviews were not technical but rather assessed whether I was culturally aligned with the company. All of this was coordinated seamlessly by my dedicated recruitment officer who continually communicated what was expected and how I could prepare for each round.

Best way to prepare is to know the OSI model, what TCP/IP is, how to find an IP address. Also most important is to know the company values (PAS, Collaboration, Results, Making a Difference), and about the company. They like questions regarding the company, especially to do with customer service.
Graduate, Sydney
You could best prepare by studying some fundamental networking concepts such as the OSI model. The third round of the interview involved talking about something I was passionate about - I ensured that the topic I'd bring up was something I knew a decent amount about when quizzed about it.
