J'ai postulé via une agence de recrutement. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Barclays (Londres, Angleterre)
Entretien
Very organised and professional:
Initial contact with the Recruitment Agency;
Initial phone interview with the Senior Manager to assess suitability;
Final interview, organised by HR, confirmed via Recruitment Agency in a matter of days.
The interview was split in stages: competency based interview (about 6 competencies, 2 questions for each); 3 separate business line interviews with different managers all very professional, friendly and experienced interviewers.
Questions d'entretien [1]
Question 1
All questions were quite standard, including the competency based ones.

Entretien
I was interviewed for a contract role. There was no JD shared despite of me asking for the same. The interviewer(s) changed in the call and I was introduced to two new interviewers who would take my interview. They were shooting questions one after another without letting me breathe in between. I have over 21 years of experience and without a JD it was difficult for me to understand what to mention and what not and what exactly skill they are looking for. Luckily I didn't get through but if I would have been, I would have said NO. It was very very unprofessional interview. It seemed like they had made up their mind and looking for excuses to fail.

Entretien
One Recruiter meeting - one on one to discuss experience and the role
One Technical interview around one week later - ~5 detailed technical questions. Fairly formal format and style
The process was quite long but very well structured, and the team remained consistently responsive throughout. It involved a test, followed by an interview, and ultimately an offer. Overall, the experience felt positive, transparent, and professionally handled from start to finish
