Application

I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Domestic & General Group (London, England) in August 2015.

Interview

After submitting my CV, I received a phone call from a recruiter. The phone interview was very informal and was asked questions about myself, why marketing, past experiences, and it ended on 'what is your favourite marketing campaign and why'. Was later invited to the assessment day where I had to complete verbal tests and numerical tests, followed by a group activity (pitching side and buying side). There was an informal lunch with previous graduates and members of HR and the day finished off with a final one-on-one interview.

The first interview consisted of meeting two Product Managers - one of whom was to be my actual manager. The interview focuses on key strengths and my abilities. There was also a numerical test as well as a test examining your ability to analyse figures and make conclusions.

I was aware of the particular salary band for the role and was asked my salary expectations during the interview (however, I had gone through an agency so my lowest salary acceptable salary had already been communicated to the company but I a managed to negotiate higher than this).

Interview

As you would expect from a large employer. Detailed phone screen first. Then one on one, then a panel with a peer, the hiring manager and a director. Included a tour of the offices and an informal introduction to the potential team that I would be managing. Informal and informative.

Interview

Application, logical-verbal tests , phone-interview, assessment center. The internal candidates, knew the assessment questions beforehand . Role-play assessment, quite irrelevant for the position. The company told us that we are going to get a reply concerning the selection process as well as feedback. Still waiting though..

Interview

An absolute shambles. Possibly the most unprofessional morally unethical company i have interviewed and been offered a role with. I was offered the role and asked for 2 days to investigate logistics ( i needed to find a place to live closer to Wimbledon) The recruiter and interviewee was aware of this at interview stage. I was told I had less then 24 hours to give an answer. I confirmed the acceptance of the offer within this period to then receive a call 2 hours later stating the offer had been retracted as i had requested 2 days to confirm logistics and i wasn't excited enough to have accepted the offer instantly. I've never heard anything so ridiculous. A lucky escape for me it seems.

I applied online. The process took a week. I interviewed at Domestic & General Group (Nottingham, England).

Interview

Kept waiting 30 minutes past my interview time with no apology. During the time I was waiting, there was a constant stream of employees going outside to smoke, I counted 50 at one point! This was mid afternoon. Majority seem to be straight out of university which shouldn't be a surprise as there are two universities virtually in the doorstep.. Mediocre interview and can't say I was inspired to really want to work there after that! On the positive, easy to get via public transport (tram) and right in the City centre
