I applied through a recruiter. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Deliveroo (London, England) in May 2022
Interview
The process is unnecessarily long (6 stages), the interviewers were friendly and the study case was insightful and gives a good idea of what the job was. Unfortunately, the whole process takes a long time, which becomes quite stressful. The whole thing could have been done in 3 stages (interview with the direct manager, case study and last interview with other key team members. In the meantime, I interview for another company, got an offer and decided to accept it because Deliveroo was taking too long.

Question 1
Mostly "tell us about a time in which you had to..."
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review and I'm sorry it didn't come to fruition this time! Would you mind dropping me an email? I'd love to dig into this and understand why this process took 6 stages: we strive for fewer, as you suggest :) jamie.edwards+glassdoor@deliveroo.co.uk
Other Operations Manager interview reviews for Deliveroo
I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Deliveroo (London, England) in Dec 2025
Interview
1 screening, 3 interviews. Screening was fine but very formulaic. I answered some questions before they asked, but they still asked them again anyway. First round with hiring manager went well. 2nd round with more senior manager was ok but focused almost entirely on what my negatives are. Final round was ok, a lot of scenario based questions. The interviewer was clearly stressed/preoccupied. They had just launched something a few days prior and they were clearly frustrated to be having to do interviews in the middle of it.

I applied through an employee referral. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Deliveroo (London, England) in Dec 2024
Interview
The process was conducted promptly, with timely follow-up over email and guidance on how to prepare. Questions were aligned with the job description. After an initial pre-screening, the next round was with the hiring manager.

Question 1
Tell me about a time you had to influence senior stakeholders to trust your recommendation.
There are 3 rounds of interviews, you meet with HR, operational team and operations director. Very straight forward and take upto 2 months of process depending on the market conditions. But deliveroo interview team is transparent and very clear from the start
