Interview
The interview was in 3 parts:
- Well designed Tech test
- Face to face interview with peers
- Face to face management
There was a quick turn around in terms of a response, and I was offered a place within a few days.
This process was very enjoyable and didn't waste time like other interviews I've seen. Which placed large time periods between the various stages.
Was called in for an interview.
Was interviewed by the hiring manager, team lead and the dev lead, followed by a written test
It was almost a full day event.
