Interview
There seems to be a consistent theme on the interviews being fair but the recruitment team being a bit useless and this was the same in my experience. The actual process consisted of a quick initial discussion with a recruiter followed by an in-person interview at the site. This interview involves a balance of competency based questions and process related scenario type questions. Interviewers were fair and pushed you on technical knowledge. It has been over 2 months and I haven't heard back after I received the 'maximum 4 weeks to respond' email. Clearly I'm not the only person who has had a similar experience so at this stage, it is just downright disrespectful to candidates. I would think twice before applying.
