Introduction

The following challenge will test how you use information and your analytical skills. The challenge has been designed to give you a greater understanding of whether you would enjoy and be well suited to the role of an Intelligence Officer in MI5.

The challenge should take you approximately 15minutes to complete. You will be required to read and understand some initial instructions and then have an opportunity to view a number of written documents (10 minutes). Finally you will be asked to answer some multiple choice questions relating to what you have read (approx. 5 minutes) to help you pull together your thoughts on the situation.

The scenario and any data contained within are fictitious and are not intended to fully reflect the views and processes of MI5. Nevertheless, the exercise is designed to broadly reflect some of the situations you would be expected to deal with in the role. For the purposes of the exercise, please therefore treat the situation as real and behave as you would in a similar situation in reality.
