One on-site interview in their office (Bristol). It felt more like the interviewers were trying to catch me out with every question rather than evaluating my skills. Never received an answer.

The technical interview included an open-ended rotational dynamics and another simulink model with a a theta output (again to do with rotations) problem that required the candidate to identify missing assumptions and define parameters before solving. While this approach can effectively assess engineering reasoning, the structure of the interview included a lengthy verbal discussion beforehand, which made transitioning into an open-ended analytical problem more challenging. Candidates may benefit from pacing that allows sufficient mental space for structured problem-solving. Overall, the interviewer tested assumption management and communication skills in addition to technical knowledge. I would encourage the company to structure technical interviews in a way that promotes collaborative problem-solving rather than ambiguity without clarification. Alternative formats such as one-on-one technical discussions, structured case walkthroughs, or clearly defined assumption-setting exercises may better reflect how engineers actually work in practice. I share this feedback respectfully and with the intention of contributing to a constructive candidate experience. Thank you for the opportunity to interview.
