Question 1
Experience in taking projects from concept to full production maturity
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Arrival (London, England) in Jul 2021
Interview

I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Arrival (London, England) in Jun 2021
Interview
Three stages: one brief chat with a recruiter (which I don't believe was assessed), one technical interview with some engineering team leaders, one personality-fit chat with a senior manager.
I had some other applications in progress and Arrival were very helpful regarding expediting the recruitment process.
