Solicité el puesto a través de una agencia de empleo. El proceso duró 2 semanas. Acudí a una entrevista en Landmark Information (Exeter, Inglaterra)
Entrevista
Initial communications was via my agent, followed by a telephone interview of basic C#, XAML questions. The phone interview was held by the development manager - not technical themselves, and was done from a script.
The second stage was an interview at the office with a simple C# programming 'challenge' to read a file, store contents of the file into a db, read back from the db, order the results (not allowed to use 'order by' LINQ) and store back into a file.

Nothing really, it seemed like they had gone through the guide to interview questions and picked them out.

Entrevista
Three interviews over a period of weeks...
1. Telephone interview with Development manager. Very simple Java based questions. I had the distinct impression that the interviewer was either consulting with others, or the internet to assert information (questions or answers) - long pauses on mute!
2. Detailed Technical F2F with Dev. manager & a developer. More detailed technical investigations of scenarios and technologies (e.g. Hibernate and Spring) Nothing too difficult, although the made-up scenario was confusing.
3. F2F Java speed test & interview including HR. One hour Java speed test, followed by very straight forward 'non-technical' interview
In the whole process, no real reference was made to current or past work, and I was never shown around the premises

No difficult questions for a seasoned Java developer (incl. the required technologies).
The big problem was the java 'speed test'.
