I applied online. I interviewed at Bombardier in Feb 2016
Interview
Following 3 onlines tests, I was invited to a telephone interview. Before the interview, they told me the position I was applying for had been filled and if I'd consider transferring to another role which I accepted. The telephone interview was fairly standard and went well. They then called me and said there was an error on their part and I have to re do the online tests which I did and I'm pretty certain I passed them. Was told I'd hear from them within a week but a month later and still no word and my emails to the HR lady have gone ignored. Clearly not a very competent HR department.

I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Bombardier (Crewe, England) in Mar 2019
Interview
I had a phone interview which was fine, questions like 'why do you think you'll be a good fit at the company'. I was then offered to come to the assessment centre. This was very laid back and I felt comfortable here in speaking. There were 3 people assessing and they were all nice and friendly. I didn't feel pressured at all, more like we were just having a chat despite it being an interview.
