Acudí a una entrevista en Tesco (Welwyn Garden City, Inglaterra)
Entrevista
3 different stages: 1st with talent acquisition, next with a principal engineer, finally 3 separate interviews with 3 other engineering managers. They all seemed to know what they were talking about and conducted the interviews in a very professional and distended manner. Overall a good experience with great feedback at the end of the process

Entrevista
Phone Interview followed by a 3 hour on site interview in WGC. The face 2 face was as if it was for a technical architect position.
The 3 on-site stages were: Competency, Code Review and System Design.
Competency was unstructured, no questions about how I would handle situations. I described why I wanted to join Tesco supporting with figures, but the interviewer was unimpressed.
Code Review had no direction. I was shown a project and handed over the laptop. Then it was up to me, to call their code good/bad. pointed out a lot of production issues with the code, which probably didn't sit well with the interviewer.
System design was as if it was for a technical architect. I was expected to know how cryptology with a scanner works.
