Overall, the interview process was professional and well organised, and the interviewers were friendly and welcoming. Unfortunately, I was unsuccessful at the final stage and was given feedback that my technical answers did not score as highly as other candidates. I had prepared by speaking with someone already working in a similar role, which gave me valuable insight into the day-to-day responsibilities and expectations of the position. Despite this preparation, the technical bar appeared to be very high, which suggests that candidates relying solely on independent research may find the process particularly challenging. That said, I appreciated the opportunity to interview and the constructive feedback provided, and I would still recommend the company to those considering applying.
