I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (London, England) in Nov 2022
Interview
the interview is very difficult: 3 stages of interview: video call interview asking questions, technical test and in office face-to-face interview. The questions are related to deep understanding of C++, data structures and algorithm. For example, why STL don't use virtual functions

Question 1
lots of difficult questions around STL, data structures and algorithms
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (Prague) in Oct 2021
Interview
Too many team leaders in one interviews. It feel like 1v6 battle so not really comfortable from the start. But later it was better and also feedback after interview was OK.
I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (Prague) in Sep 2021
Interview
five hours interview, full team on the call.
general knowledge (containers, exceptions, movables, RAII, virtual tables, mutable, allocators, boost).
code review.
live coding least recent cache.
typical leet code medium problems.
follows big tech interview process, I advise preparing using "cracking the coding interview".
