I applied in-person. The process took 2 days. I interviewed at Barclays in Oct 2011
Interview
On the interview, I suppose to meet with 2 technical guys and video conference with the team manager in UK. I first met with the technical guys who work on the team. They asked me few technical questions and I think I went pretty well. So I suppose to interview with the team manager but due to the technical problem of the video conference, i couldn't see the manager. So have to reschedule to another interview. On the second day, they mess up the room. After find the correct room, there was not much time left. Then the manager didn't ask much and rush to go.
You have to do 2 back to back 45 min interviews (after doing a 2 question oa) Both of these are technical. The interviewers asked a series of questions about general concepts, not specific coding questions. The OA was 2 leetcode hards
