Fiz uma entrevista na empresa Barclays (Londres, Inglaterra).
Entrevista
Online application - was very simple.
Online assessments - first two parts were easy (most/least effective and true/false based on scenarios), but maths part was very challenging especially with the time limit.
Interview - was 2 on 1. They give the competencies before the interview, so as long as you prepare you will be fine. You must give examples from past experiences for pretty much every question they ask you. Must follow the STAR format.
Outcome - thought the interview went very well and got offered the job. After this there is a pre-employment screening process, which you must also pass.
Thought the whole process was very organised, however did take longer than I wanted it to.

I applied online for a temp position, after 3 days the recruiter contacted me,I did a screening on the phone and they sent me a link to a video interview,,my interview went well, just 11 pre-recorded competency based questions using STAR technique.
Then they made me wait for 2 weeks so I had to email them,,somebody contacted me the same day saying they decided to chose an internal candidate.
What a shame and waste of time!

This was for a temporary role. Although recruitment was done by Barclays you were employed by an agency in London. It was a video interview so I never actually had a face to face interview. This was the first time I'd done a video interview and you had to answer the questions in a certain time frame before it moved on to the next question which was a bit tricky. Have a list of scenarios at the ready and dress as though you are at a physical interview as they will see what you look like on video.

The interview lasted approximately for an hour. I was interviewed by two people. The atmosphere was relaxing and friendly. The questions were not very difficult. But it was necessary that the answers were structured according to the STAR technique. It's really important for the candidate to be prepared to describe specific incidents from their working history. Be well prepared in advance! The questions were focused on the candidate competency guide sent within the interview confirmation email. They made questions on the topics: Control environment, Interpersonal skills and Technical Skills. They didn't ask anything about the information on my CV.
