I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Santander (London, England) in Jan 2009
Interview
Referred through former colleague who worked there
2 interviews in one session. One competency based with HR, one more technical with senior manager
8 weeks to get a firm decision, although they gave me positive feedback immediately afterward
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What would you do if you received notice on a Friday morning that you had to let one of your team go? Would you tell them on Friday or would you wait till the Monday morning?
