Option three – Full partition
A full partition means some or all the new blocks may be transferred to people outside the existing
ownership, hapū or group associated with the land.
These include a group activity, an interview and a role play. They’re around 2–3 hours long and also include a panel. Interview tips and advice Whether it’s an interview or an assessment centre, think about the questions you might get asked and examples you can use to illustrate your answer.
