I applied online. I interviewed at NRG7 (Kensington) in Mar 2026
Interview
One-sided interview with the company director. Couldn't shake the feeling that the questions were designed to pick out flaws and make you seem bad, so that they can exploit you as much as possible. Mentioned that the role was going to initially be an unpaid internship, although the listing was shown as a paid role. Overall very disappointing and felt very disrespected.

Interview
It was an extremely disappointing experience. The interview was conducted by the HR manager and the Managing Director, where we initially discussed basic details like my educational background, work experience, and working rights. However, the Managing Director soon veered off-topic, began mocking my work experience, and displayed an entitled attitude. He even made racial comments about Asians and offered me a sales role instead of the mechanical engineering position I had applied for. Overall, it was such an unpleasant experience that I decided I would never want to work for that company.

Question 1
Why would I hire you, because you've no prior engineering experience and you wasted your time doing odd jobs?
