Entrevista
Firstly I had to do an initial application form which was straightforward asking the basics, then was invited to complete an online assessment which was a situational judgement test, following that I was asked to complete a numeracy and literacy assessment and was then invited to attend a face to face interview. If I had passed this stage they would have then gone on to do a background check before offering the job. In the interview there was the branch manager and an assistant that took notes. To begin with it was very friendly getting to know me as the candidate and a brief insight to my experience, qualifications were not brought up at all. After the introduction they explained the competency based part of the interview which would test the competencies given to the candidate via email prior to the interview. This part of the interview consisted of questions relating to risks, interpersonal skills and abilities, technical knowledge etc. Overall a very professional yet relaxed experience. A week later I received an email telling me I was fit for the role but on this occasion they were not going to offer me the position.

I applied online for a temp position, after 3 days the recruiter contacted me,I did a screening on the phone and they sent me a link to a video interview,,my interview went well, just 11 pre-recorded competency based questions using STAR technique.
Then they made me wait for 2 weeks so I had to email them,,somebody contacted me the same day saying they decided to chose an internal candidate.
What a shame and waste of time!

This was for a temporary role. Although recruitment was done by Barclays you were employed by an agency in London. It was a video interview so I never actually had a face to face interview. This was the first time I'd done a video interview and you had to answer the questions in a certain time frame before it moved on to the next question which was a bit tricky. Have a list of scenarios at the ready and dress as though you are at a physical interview as they will see what you look like on video.

The interview lasted approximately for an hour. I was interviewed by two people. The atmosphere was relaxing and friendly. The questions were not very difficult. But it was necessary that the answers were structured according to the STAR technique. It's really important for the candidate to be prepared to describe specific incidents from their working history. Be well prepared in advance! The questions were focused on the candidate competency guide sent within the interview confirmation email. They made questions on the topics: Control environment, Interpersonal skills and Technical Skills. They didn't ask anything about the information on my CV.
