      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Barclays in Oct 2024

      Interview

      I have interviewed for the role through GHC 2024. Initially, there was a phone screen followed by an interview and a 45-minute panel interview that was a mix of behavioral and technical questions based on my previous work experience. The process was disappointing, with no proper communication from the recruiters and no respect for the candidate's time.
