Online testing followed by a single interview. The online application followed by the standard situational testing was more difficult than the face to face interview in my opinion. The face to face focused on your motivations and some fundamental engineering concepts.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Atkins (Warrington, North West England, England) in May 2019
Interview
Easy and straight forward interview with generic questions such as competency questions. A few questions based on CV information and hobbies as well as where I see myself in the future

Question 1
How did you research the company to prepare for this interview?
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Atkins in Apr 2013
Interview
The process took longest for the application to be considered, and included online testing. The interview was offered about 2 weeks before the interview date. The interview was very relaxed, however included some technical question which had not been anticipated. It lasted about 50 mins. I would recommend you know some interesting facts about the company ahead of the interview.
