I initially applied to the Data Analyst roles on the Technical Delivery Graduate programme. I received a call within a couple of weeks, saying that all of the Data Analyst roles were filled, but would I be interested in a different role? After agreeing, and waiting another couple of weeks, I was invited to the first stage interview at the Guildford office. This was a pretty basic interview, more about getting to know you as a person, and briefly going through your CV. It lasted about 1 hour. After another couple of weeks, I was invited to a second stage interview, this time lasting 2 hours with 2 interviewers who were on the team that I'd be working on. The interview consisted of a 20 minute presentation on a 'complex subject' of my choice, followed by some very technical and testing questions. I had to write some pseudo code and solve some lateral thinking puzzles, followed by questions on my motivation for joining them and the content of my CV. After this, about a month, and some chasing, I eventually received an offer.

Applied directly online, with a CV and cover letter. They replied within a week or two with an invite to interview at their Guildford office. This was one hour with a single interviewer and was mostly technical questions, going into detail about things on my CV. I didn't hear back for a couple of weeks, so followed up with an email and within a couple of days I'd been invited to a second interview. This was with two interviewers, lasting two hours and included a 20 minute presentation about "a complex problem". The questions covered my motivation for joining them, my career interests, the content of my CV, and a logic puzzle. All interviewers were friendly and helpful, and I felt the interviews went well. After just over a week, I received a phone call to inform me that I would not receive an offer.
