I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Curtins (London, England) in Apr 2019
Interview
Went straight from application to in-person interview. The interview was relatively informal and quick, we discussed projects I had worked on in my portfolio and they talked about their company and that was it.
I applied through an employee referral. I interviewed at Curtins (Leeds, England) in Jan 2016
Interview
I have been in contact with one of the directors through another employee of the company. I have the interview within a month. After that I have no contact with the company and the director did not even send me an email to say that I did not get the job.
