J'ai postulé via un recruteur. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez BAE Systems (Guildford, Angleterre) en nov. 2011
Entretien
Got a first interview with a recruiter. It was 1:1, he gave an account of the company and I talked through my background.
Stage 1.
I was asked a few questions like "what do you know about Detica", just to find out if I'd done any research at all.
One basic question about OO programming - outline a class that creates different types of pens.
Didn't feel like the interview went particularly well as I was quite nervous and was prompted through my answers, but I was offered a second stage interview.
Stage 2.
I gave a presentation about my PhD and talked a lot about what it is like to work for the company. Was asked to work through the development cycle for a piece of software.
Very friendly but I never heard back after this, which I found extremely rude. I suspect that they couldn't quite place me as I had a maths background not comp sci. but they knew this after the first round interview. I expect that the recruiter couldn't be bothered te reply to my e-mails once he knew I didn't get the job. All in all a bit of a waste of time as I received no useful feedback.

Entretien
I first had a phone screening that asked me some basic technical questions like “When would you choose to use Python over C++ for a project?” or “Can you explain what inheritance is in object-oriented programming?”
Afterwards, like two weeks later, I had an in-person panel interview with 6 people where I had to make a PowerPoint about myself and answer behavioral questions, everyone was very welcoming and the interview went really well but I was ghosted after that and no emails were responded to.

Online hirevue behavioural questions followed by a psychometric online assessment. OA was fairly simple and included the typical questions like verbal and arithmatic reasoning. Spot the different shapes and patterns was a bit difficult
