I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Autotrader (Manchester, England) in Dec 2024
Interview
First stage was a quick online test - no coding. Then it went to a face-to-face interview over Teams. Next was an in-person day of events including a two-on-one interview with members of their software team, a peer programming exercise, and a group task.
They were accommodating, communicative and friendly all throughout the process.

Interview
Kind of surprised to fail at the first stage as I have software experience and there was no technical question. Then in the feedback email, I was told that I needed more knowledge in tech. However, I have had 1 year experience in fullstack considering it is a graduate role.
