Take the Lion mock interviewHow the Lion hiring process works
Lion, the Australia and New Zealand beverage employer, confirms HireVue for many roles. The digital stage can involve recorded responses or gamified assessment. Its process varies by position, so no single named-game lineup or fixed interview configuration should be assumed.
Lion’s hiring guidance describes a flexible sequence. Apply and complete the digital stage if invited. Some roles add a Talent Partner phone conversation and online assessment. Meet the hiring team for interviews. Complete relevant checks before the offer.
Lion’s sales careers page explains the different business settings. Use these distinctions to select your own preparation examples. For account or field sales, identify whether the work concerns large retailers or venue customers. For strategy roles, identify the category, channel or revenue decisions in the vacancy. For hospitality, connect your experience to the customer-facing venue environment.
