I applied online. The process took four weeks.

It was a three-stage interview process.

• First stage: A video interview with the hiring manager (QA Test Lead) and another guy from the payment team. She asked about my general testing experience and my opinion on what I think "Quality" is.
• Second stage: A testing exercise on an article app. The task was to report on the bug prioritisation and other details.
• Third and final stage: An on-site interview at their HQ in Moorgate with four people, including the QA Lead (Hiring Manager) and three mobile engineers/developers. This included a tour of the office, which is quite cool.

Everyone was nice. The mobile engineers asked quite technical questions on tools and processes that I currently use. Once I had finished my interview, I had to wait about a week for feedback.

Although it was a no, I was extremely impressed with the way Monzo treated me and how much detailed feedback they gave me, which is something that I've never had before. The recruiter literally spent about 45 minutes on improvements and other things that I can make, which was much appreciated from me. This to me shows that Monzo generally care about the candidates who apply for their roles and their staff. I will be sure to work on the feedback given to me and potentially reapply in the near future.

What do you think "Quality" is?

How do you get on with developers?

What testing tools do you use?

What do you want to do in the near future?

How do you prioritise bugs?
