Positive experience

Average interview

Application

I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Marks & Spencer (London, England) in Jan 2022

Interview

3 rounds: HR screen, Pair programming & behavioural panel with senior engineers. Pair programming was with a staff engineer, behavioural was with Engineering Managers in the same product group. Behavioural was the most interesting as they all had varying backgrounds and valued my non-traditional background
