London, EnglandPosted Aug 2018 · Candidate report, summarized by Dataford

I started with an online test, and then I moved into two half-days of in-person interviews.

Those sessions mixed technical and managerial interviews, so I wasn’t only evaluated on problem-solving.

On the technical side, the emphasis was on thinking algorithmically. It wasn’t about memorising a laundry list of algorithms from textbooks; the expectation was more about adopting the right problem-solving mindset. Even though the process didn’t lead to an offer for me, it felt like the interviewers were targeting broader reasoning rather than trivial recall.
