      Sales Interview

      Apr 6, 2015
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (London, England) in Dec 2014

      Interview

      Very basic HR questions for first round interview. Consisted of 10 "fit" questions and no technicals were asked. Best to prep using the STAR process (Situation, Task, Action, Result) so it is easier to lay out your thought process to the interviewer. Very casual. Also make sure you are in an area with good reception.
