Having applied, I was invited to do an aptitude test which was fairly basic non-verbal reasoning and math problems - however, the time limit was short. Having progressed through this, I had an interview with an internal recruiter. She was nice and the questions were generic with no curve balls. They seemed to be looking for something very specific. A week later I received an email saying that I wouldn't be suitable for the role.

I was contacted through LinkedIn. The process went as follows: 1. HR call: positive experience. Mix between understanding my background deeper and giving HR information regarding the role. Recruiter was helpful, professional, and friendly. 2. Online test: positive experience. Went as expected and felt relatively easy. 3. HR call: positive experience; was briefed on next steps. 4. Take-home exercise: skipped this step 5. Business case: positive experience. Interviewer was professional, friendly and collaborative. Case was simple in design but allowed for extensive discussions. 6. Bar raiser interview: terrible experience. Stone-cold interviewer who wasn’t agile between questions and shortened the interview to a ridiculous duration. No follow-up question asked. Interviewer didn’t bother answering questions regarding his experience/the firm with any full sentence. Very confusing experience that felt like a loss of time…
