I received the call from HR first they said they are from Lloyd bank and this hiring is for Hyderabad based location but due to mandatory face to face round careernet consultancy busilding space has been using and client Lloyd bank person will be taking interview on weekend. On Thursday they called me at 9:30 pm in night and asking to come on Friday as client coming from uk for this interview but due to my office I said no then they asked to come on Saturday. In between they called me approx 50 times and I doubted with this that they are not from Lloyd then asked the process they said only two rounds technical discussion and behavioural. They said only 3-4 candidates they have. When I went there I got to know they have called approx 200 candidates and for one slot they had 3-4 candidates for same timing. I have chosen the slot for 2pm for which other candidates also there. Then I wait for 1 hr no Then I had one important meeting for 15 min at 3:45 for which I careed my laptop. I went to reception, guard not allowed me then receptionist said I came for interview give interview and go I can sit as other candidates will come. Such a disgusting behaviour and management. I told about my meeting and asking for permission but they denied and said go to parking area if have to attend meeting. And they said it’s careernet building our rules . Lloyd bank is only taking interviews. I’m in doubt with the interviewer also about from being Lloyd bank. If you get call for face to face round from careernet for any company, never go.

Autres retours d’entretien d’embauche pour un poste comme Frontend Developer chez Lloyds Banking Group
Wasted an evening interacting with their talent assessment tool. You need to spend 45 minutes answering trivia questions about arcane methods of writing HTML/CSS/JS.
It's understandable that, as a bank, they may have more legacy systems or a greater need to support ancient technology. But why disqualify people for leaving the page more than three times? Particularly when half of your questions contain deliberate mistakes in the API to trip people up. What a joke!
When choosing a new company, I want to know that I'll be working with competent people who can help me to develop my skills further. I don't have any confidence that Lloyds' recruitment process could select for this.

Entretien
Received an automatic email saying that I needed to do an assesment.
The assesment is timed and you fail it if you change tabs or do a screenshot. You can't google anything. I guess they are more interested in knowing how good you do during an exam (or how good you are at using your phone) rather than your job.
The website and the questions they used for the test were atrocious:
- First, it lags a lot on Firefox and it's impossible to use. They should recommend using Chrome on the email at least.
- I had a connection error and lost my progress.
- There's no syntax highlighting, so reading the code is more difficult than it should.
- Some questions are weirdly written, it doesn't look like good English. Probably not that much of an issue if you're native, but if you're not, you may need to read it a couple of times before you understand it.
- Most of the questions are tricky, pointless and/or niche, and don't reflect an usual real work scenario. Why would you ask a question about CSS columns?
After the first assesment, I received an email saying that the first assesment was sent by mistake, and that I needed to repeat it. At least some of my answers were saved. I repeated it and I haven't heard from them after a month, so I assume they aren't moving forward.
