Brief hiring screen with a recruiter followed by a panel interview with the team the successful candidate would join. It's been over a month and I've heard nothing from the panel or the recruiter, despite my reaching out for an update. A simple, automated "thanks, but no thanks" would have sufficed. Ghosting is really poor form.
I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (Knutsford, England) in Apr 2025
Interview
Interview was smooth and quick turnaround. It was over teams with panel of two people that was organised via an agency. I was not successful, quite honestly don't know why, as this was the second round interview with them.

Question 1
How would you manage disruptive colleagues that did not agree with Scrum?
It did not feel like an interview. It was a nice and relaxed experience. The interviewers were warm and friendly, and very relatable. It was a mix of light-hearted discussions and interview questions, which greatly helped to take a way nervousness.
