i applied online directly on their official website. the online application process was fine. an email from HR for face-to-face interview at London office. 2 interviewers, one from retouching dep., one from HR. the process was smooth and we agreed a second interview which is a photoshop test. the guy from retouching dep. even said "look at your portfolio and I can tell you are going to pass the test with ease" but then I got no email follow up for the next 2 weeks. They ignored my emails. at the end I called and HR said they are fully stuffed.

Applied online and went for the interview. Took my portfolio on an ipad but was never asked to show it. Also, the managers had no paper with my resume printed out and just asked me casually about my work experience. We got along well and I was genuinely interested in learning from them as they seemed quite experienced. This is junior, so you are supposed to be taught and expect to evolve, not be fully aware of everything. I have a 1-year experience under my belt under big brands but still, believe there is space for more. The test was easy and clear to understand, nobody was willing to tell me if I did well or not, to be honest, everyone seemed afraid to do so in case they were not going ahead with placing the offer. In the end, I got an email 2 weeks after saying I wasn't selected for the role as they had found more suitable candidates. When asked to explain further and give feedback of the interview - for improvement, I got 1 line email from HR saying - we found more suitable candidates. Feels a bit of a waste of time.
