I applied online. I interviewed at Rolls-Royce (Bristol, Inglaterra) in Jul 2017
Interview
I applied in May 2017 and in 2 days I did receive a short call from HR, with some general Questions. After that, I was invited to a phone interview with the Chief Engineer. The interview took 30 minutes and was more competences based and current/previous experiences. After 2 weeks, RR invited me to an assessment day, which involved: Site Tour, Interview (Technical And Competency Based Questions) and Group Exercises. The site tour was amazing and the environment was really chill out. The technical interview was very difficult, with very specific questions about a Trent 900.
I didn't get an offer; however, the all process was amazing and Rolls-Royce people always treated me very well.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Rolls-Royce (Bengaluru) in Sep 2016
Interview
The interview process was good. It started on time and ended on time. The questions were not typical interview questions. They are mix of behavior based and technical. They asked me to explain a technical problem I solved, which was good.
But the HR behaved cheapishly did not reimburse the travel charges. I had to spend 3000 rupees to attend the interview. She told that she would send reimbursement form but she turned deaf later - no matter how many times I reminded her, she did not reply. I thought that was cheap and unprofessional.
