      Finance Industrial Placement Interview

      10 Feb 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Positive experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at BAE Systems in Feb 2016

      Interview

      Application form online. Then had to complete situational strengths, numerical reasoning and verbal reasoning online tests. Your application is then reviewed by a manager after which you are given a telephone interview. The eight interview questions are intentionally ambiguous as they are trying to understand how you interpret the questions and how you choose to answer these interpretations. The interviewer was nice: she didn't rush me or put pressure on me to answer the question in any particular way and she was also willing to repeat the question as many times as was necessary. Chose No on 'did you get an offer' as I am waiting for the email to determine whether I will progress to the assessment centre.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      What do you understand of how BAE operates? (Not the exact question) Would people describe you as someone who continually improves? Some people say working alone, opposed to in a team, offers the best chance produce great work and to be recognised. Do you agree with this? (Again, not the exact question) Would people describe you as someone who is adaptable? How often do you pro actively further your knowledge/skills? How do you apply these new skills/knowledge.
