I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Barclays (London, England) in Mar 2023
Interview
After you apply, there is a numerical SHL Test, then a video interview, where you record your answers and then an assessment centre. 1.5 weeks after my video interview, I was invited to an assessment centre.
Assessment centre includes:
1. Competency based questions with 2 years senior compliance analyst. Basic questions, why Barclays? Name a time where you worked in a team? Quite easy going.
2. Case study interview, you get 20 minutes to prepare and then another 2 years senior compliance analyst will quiz you on issues you find in the case study. It's quite easy and it's based on issues in a branch so not technical.
The interviews all went fine but I was left in the dark after an extensive interview process for 3.5 months. Barclays outsource their recruitment process so the phone number that eventually rang 3.5 months later to put me on a reserve list was from the Phillipines. They should really value candidates more, it's a lot of valuable time and effort for the entire application process.
First screening with recruiter.
Then 2 technical interview with managers and a collaborator
The past experiences and technical question about the post and interaction with collaborators. The use of AI. Some presentation about the company and the services.
I applied through college or university. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Barclays (Pune) in Aug 2025
Interview
The interview process was not a lengthy one since Barclays had come for On Campus placements. There was a behavioral test and coding test as the first round. It was followed by a resume screening round. The next round after resume screening was personal interview. Personal interview had technical as well as HR rounds.
