      Senior Programmer Analyst Interview

      25 Aug 2012
      Anonymous employee
      Burgess Hill, England
      Accepted offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at American Express (Burgess Hill, England) in Mar 2011

      Interview

      2 step process usually; a competency based interview and a technical interview. For competency based interview, several questions on competency such as 'driving results' (there are a set of competency statements in the company, mainly on leadership skills) are asked and you need to answer them based on your experience. For technical interviews, you are not usually asked low-level details but rather high level understanding of concepts, technologies and architectures. Usually, again, you may be asked to answer based on your experience.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      Nothing difficult or unexpected, but I don't really know the 'right' answer for a question like "what do you do when you disagree with your colleague/leader..".
