Nothing special. Personal life, past experiences and future goal. It's more like fit interviews. I have met around 10 people in total. It was a great experience as I also could understand the culture very well
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Barclays in Apr 2021

Interview scheduling, follow up, confirmation and offer rollout took almost 3 months. Communication from HR was not up to the mark. Expect multiple rounds of interview with different interviewers in increasing order of seniority.
