Candidatei-me online. O processo levou 4 semanas. Fiz uma entrevista na empresa BAE Systems.
Entrevista
A couple of days after filling out the online form (which was very simple and straight fowrard) I received a call from the graduate recruitment office. This lasted about 15 minutes and went over some basic questions such as why I wanted to work for BAE systems and what I knew about the company. The recruiter then explained a bit about the roll that I was applying for and the specific route that I wanted to take.
2 days later I recieved another call from the recruiter asking me if I wanted to go for an interview. I accepted.
This first interview was mainly competency based, there were a few awkward questions, such as "describe a time you were given negative feedback, how did you overcome this", but mostly it was pretty standard competency questions. The interviewer then explain a little bit about their job and answered any questions I had. The next part of this interview consisted of a case study. This is generally a simple mathematical problem. Then there were some general HR questions and the interview ended.
Within a week I was called by the graduate recruitment office. They asked me how I thought the interview went and then went on to giving me specific feedback. After that I was invited to a second round interview. I was told that I would have to prepare a presentation on "a complex problem". This was a very vague description but it did give me the freedom to prepare anything I liked. I would recommend not using anything that involved reallly complicated maths or you could risk losing the interviewer and to keep it light hearted an upbeat.
The second round interview was a lot more in depth. It started with me giving my presentation, after this I was asked questions surrounding the topic that I gave, so make sure you know the general are you are presenting in very well. Next we went through my CV and was asked questions on that. The final part of the interview consisted of a few more case studies similar to what was given before. One was particularly tricky but getting part way through it seemed to be enough so don't be disheartened if you can't get to the final answer on all of them.
Within a week again I was called up by graduate recruitment offering me the job!

I don't want to give the questions out as this would risk identifying myself.

I initially applied to the Data Analyst roles on the Technical Delivery Graduate programme. I received a call within a couple of weeks, saying that all of the Data Analyst roles were filled, but would I be interested in a different role?
After agreeing, and waiting another couple of weeks, I was invited to the first stage interview at the Guildford office. This was a pretty basic interview, more about getting to know you as a person, and briefly going through your CV. It lasted about 1 hour.
After another couple of weeks, I was invited to a second stage interview, this time lasting 2 hours with 2 interviewers who were on the team that I'd be working on. The interview consisted of a 20 minute presentation on a 'complex subject' of my choice, followed by some very technical and testing questions. I had to write some pseudo code and solve some lateral thinking puzzles, followed by questions on my motivation for joining them and the content of my CV.
After this, about a month, and some chasing, I eventually received an offer.

Entrevista
Applied directly online, with a CV and cover letter. They replied within a week or two with an invite to interview at their Guildford office.
This was one hour with a single interviewer and was mostly technical questions, going into detail about things on my CV. I didn't hear back for a couple of weeks, so followed up with an email and within a couple of days I'd been invited to a second interview.
This was with two interviewers, lasting two hours and included a 20 minute presentation about "a complex problem". The questions covered my motivation for joining them, my career interests, the content of my CV, and a logic puzzle.
All interviewers were friendly and helpful, and I felt the interviews went well. After just over a week, I received a phone call to inform me that I would not receive an offer.
