I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at General Mills (London, England) in Apr 2020
Interview
The first step of the interview process was an online assessment and after that I had 30 mins phone call with the HR. Behavioural questions were very specific and the HR was very indifferent.
I was rejected by the HR, I think this part of the interview should have been done from the Line Manager.
