I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Lloyds Banking Group (London, England) in Jun 2015
Interview
I completed an application form, online tests, telephone interview and a half day assessment centre. The tests are standard SHL tests which were straight forward enough. The telephone interview was a mixture of competency questions and questions assessing motivation. The assessment day involved an ice breaker followed by a group task, individual task and presentation followed by a face to face interview which lasted about 45 minutes.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lloyds Banking Group (Leeds, England) in May 2015
Interview
The assessment day involved a 1 hour competency-based interview with two managers. Also, I was given 45 minutes to go through a case study and prepare a 10 minute presentation on some questions regarding the case study. Finally, there was a short 30 minute test to review my coding abilities.
