I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Rolls-Royce (Derby, England) in Oct 2017
Interview
Online tests followed by assessment centre, the assessment centre great experience, wonderful staff who obviously really enjoy the jobs that they do. The only down side to the day is where I believe I slipped up and that was on the group work, I asked a team member to read out the instructions which he struggled to read whilst the other members just started the work without knowing the full task as they had 'done there research' we failed the task miserably, a better group and I think I would have received an offer.

Question 1
Showed a picture of an aircraft engine and asked to explain different parts of it
Overall very clear process. Very standard process, cv, tests, hirevue and ac. The AC was one of the better ones i have done, given questions in advance to help prepare, give a 7 min presentation and finally a case study. All solo, no group stuff.

Question 1
Name a time you had to work in a group. All standard STAR questions
Online stage - went through AON tests only. provided digital feedback about my performance of the tests, but no reply from an actual human. Not required to put in a resume, which was interesting.

Question 1
, including workplace behaviour - a series of scenarios and choosing options that you think were right, cognitive test - choosing the next sequence/ filling in the next icon, and job simulation - replying to texts from colleagues based on their requests/demands
Amazing friendly interviewer and felt that process was an evaluation of you as a person rather than a competition between applicants. The presentations were kept to a minimum whilst still giving insight as to what the company was like to work for
