I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at 3M (London, England) in Mar 2025
Interview
A rather average zoom interview, the HR person seemed rather disinterested and distracted in the interview, whist a rather abrupt ending. No feedback given, complete radio silence which was a little disappointing.

Interview
typically starts with the candidate submitting an application, including a resume and sometimes a cover letter, which the company reviews. If shortlisted, the candidate undergoes an initial screening interview, often conducted via phone or video, to assess basic qualifications and interest in the role. Following this, candidates may go through a more in-depth first-round interview that focuses on technical skills or behavioral traits, depending on the job. Some companies also require candidates to complete a practical assessment or task. If the candidate moves forward, a second or final round interview, often involving multiple team members or senior management, is conducted to further assess fit. Afterward, the company extends an offer if the candidate is selected, and negotiations may take place before the offer is accepted. Finally, the candidate begins the onboarding process once the offer is accepted, preparing to start in the new role.
