J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Tessella (Abingdon, Angleterre) en janv. 2014
Entretien
I was referred by a friend who has a job there. I applied online and was contacted for a telephone interview. The telephone interview was quite relaxed and more like an informal chat with a HR guy. Following that I was invited for an interview day at their Abingdon office.
The interview day began with me arriving half an hour late after my alarm didn't go off - whoops. I phoned them before arriving, and they were very understanding and told me to still come for the interview. Upon arriving I was introduced to a few people, and then given a programming task to complete. The programming task was fairly trivial and could really have been finished within an hour. As I was given the whole day to do it (more or less - 10am until 4pm with a couple of hours taken for lunch and being shown around), I went overboard with my solution in an attempt to impress.
At 4pm I told them that I had finished my solution, and a couple of guys came over to have a look. They played with it for a bit, tried to break it, checked my code, questioned me on various bits of code. Thankfully, despite being probably over-complex, my code didn't fall to bits. Make sure that you check for invalid inputs, as they seemed keen to make sure that it wouldn't crash with an invalid input.
After that I gave a short presentation to someone, and then had another chat with the HR guy. He discussed various terms of the contract, and I explained that I had another offer with a deadline.

Question 1
There really wasn't anything unexpected - they were all standard interview questions.

It was friendly. They asked about my coding experience, my job experience, internship experience. They talked about the company culture and encouraged me to ask questions to them as well. Overall really positive experience.

I am a recent engineering graduate (not in Computer Science) and I submitted an application online. A few days later I received an email about scheduling a phone interview. The person I spoke to was friendly. He did a lot of the talking, and a lot of my answers were yes/no answers to questions like: Would you be willing to travel to client location? He asked three basic programming concept questions. My programming background was essentially just two programming classes but programming is something I really enjoy.

Question 1
I'm not sure which part of the interview made them not want to call me back, but if I had to do it again, I would emphasize my programming ability and experience. That is what they really care about.
