I applied online. I interviewed at Aviva (Norwich, England)
Interview
Very friendly experience with 2 interviews. Only one stage of interview. Involved answering a set series of questions in a limited amount of time. Took a while to hear back but end in a positive outcome. Really enjoyable interview. Difficulty was average for an experienced project manager.

Question 1
Asked about what considerations involved in managing change, and for examples of where I had done this?
I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Aviva (Norwich, England) in May 2025
Interview
It's just a case of 'buzzword bingo' - read the values then get two questions against each, though you won't know what value is being monitored. Come up with buzzwords and word soup and you'll be okay.
I went through four interviews for this role over the course of two months. The process was intense and I was passed between three recruiters, which confused things a bit and there were some scheduling issues throughout the process.
The final stage interview was an hour-long competency and presentation round. I completed this and felt I had a good rapport with the hiring panel, However, a few days later, I was sent a generic automated email rejecting me for the role. I was given no reason or feedback. Even after emailing both the recruiter and hiring manager, thanking them for their time and requesting feedback, I was ignored. This is not how any company should treat a candidate who put in a lot of work and two months of their life trying to get a job there.
Advice to management: After completing four rounds of interviews, the bare minimum is a personalised rejection email or a phone call, instead of an automated one, and feedback should be provided.
