Software Developer Graduate Scheme Interview Experience - United Kingdom
Process
The application process involved an online application, a fairly challenging online test, and a comprehensive assessment centre. The assessment centre included a logical test, an interview, a presentation, and three group exercises.
The interview was mainly competency-based, and the online test was easier than the initial online assessment. The presentation took place in a relatively relaxed atmosphere, with no particularly challenging questions asked. The group exercises were generally good fun.
Questions
The last group exercise involved being asked technical questions in front of other graduates.
