About the role

A route planning assistant helps turn delivery locations and service promises into efficient, workable journeys. The interview tests whether you can reason with maps and operational data, account for local constraints and learn from what actually happened on the road.

How to prepare

  1. Practise sequencing a set of stops with different locations and delivery windows.
  2. Review map tools and spreadsheet methods for comparing planned and actual routes.
  3. Prepare an example of using evidence to improve a plan.
  4. Think about how vehicle capacity, access restrictions and loading order affect routing.
  5. Be ready to explain how driver feedback can reveal a poor planning assumption.

Common mistakes

  • Choosing the shortest distance without considering delivery windows or road conditions.
  • Treating every delay as a driver issue instead of checking the original assumptions.
  • Replanning one stop without considering load order and the remaining commitments.
