Very relaxed. People are very smart and welcoming. Don’t take on many interns so the process is lengthy. Seems like a great place to work and work they do is great
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at BGF (London, England) in Sept 2023
Interview
This was great and informative and everyone was very nice to talk to and professional. great experience, would recommend to others to apply here. interview process was a video call, which was very professional and i found interesting
Upon receiving an email confirming that the next stage is a 15-minute phone call, you can choose the day and time that work best for you. Unfortunately, the experience was disappointing. I had to wait for 5 minutes because the previous candidate's call was delayed. The interviewer seemed rushed, quickly going through the questions. I understand that phone interviews can be less personable, but I have spoken with other recruiters who made an effort to help candidates feel relaxed and authentic. Additionally, there was loud background noise, making it difficult to hear the interviewer. Despite the interview process being squeezed and rushed on the company's side, the call ended abruptly with no extra time. Overall, it was an unprofessional interview process, especially for just an internship.
