Applied online. Got called up for an interview in London office. They didn't offer to reimburse expenses for the interview which was not ideal. A series of competency based questions were asked and a few fairly easy technical questions with references from the CV. The interviewers were rather distant and they tried to portray a professional/corporate atmosphere, taking notes throughout. As a person inexperienced at interviews, I didnt portray myself as a strong cadidate despite the fact I believe I matched really well the skills required for the role. My lack of interview experience was prominent during competency based questions. Having said that, I regret to say that one of the interviewers was impatient with some of my answers or my lack of exposure to interviews and openly showed that he wasnt happy with what he was hearing. On top of that, at one occasion, he started asking a question while I was still answering a previous one. His behaviour created a very uncomfortable atmosphere, let alone the fact that it was very unprofessional and simply rude.

Applied online. Then there were a series of online tests. After completing them I went for an assessment centre. The assessment centre had a technical interview, a personal interview, a writing exercise and a group exercise. It took about 6 hours all in. They didn't offer to pay expenses for the interview which I thought was cheap. Some people came a long way and must have spent £100s to get there.
