I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (Knutsford, England) in Oct 2013
Interview
telephone interview followed by face to face, long interview Felt it was more of an interview by numbers rather than something to find out about me. The interviewer was very arrogant about Barclays almost suggesting that I was extremely lucky to even get an interview. Not a good experience
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays in Aug 2010
Interview
Interviewed twice for the same job... almost a full year apart. Initial interview (screening with HR) was typical and to the point. On site interviews with peers and managers were completed followed by a test. The test took longer than the 5 interviews and was FAR more difficult. I only had to go in once, which is better than other processes where you get called back over and over to talk to different people.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Questions were typical. The test was the most difficult part of the process and took several hours. I was completely drained afterwards.
