Virtual interview
Included 6x one minute recorded questions.
Some questions were 2-3 questions in one, so very little time to sufficiently answer.
Last couple questions were standard HR questions around salary and right to work.
A bit of a waste of time. A lot of work required when they are still screening a huge number of candidates.
1. CV screening
2. Online Assessment on test gorilla (took me about 1.5hrs)
Communication - situations, correspondence and emails, how to respond
Numerical reasoning - short questions, some sequences predicting next number, some graphs and tables. Lots of ratios and %%
Working with data - looking at graphs and making statements
Problem solving - schedules and sequence order etc
3. Prerecorded interview
Question written on screen. Could take as long as you wanted to prepare and then had 3 takes. 1 min for each answer.
"Please take a moment to introduce yourself. Tell us why quick release interests and excites you, and how the skills and experiences you have gained so far could be transferred to a QR context. “
Explain a time you had to deliver in a customer facing role or meet stakeholder expectations?
You are working with a Senior engineer on a project about a late deadline, his email correspondence is brief and comes across rude and unhelpful, how would you handle this?
“We are about individual growth and learning. Can you tell us something that you taught yourself recently? Finally tell us what you like to do in your spare time or perhaps a fun thing about you that we wouldn't see on your cv”
4. Online assessment
Individual presentations on anything
Team exercise - decide on a budget for an Olympics
Technical exercise was very hard
See excel but basically car parts with list of errors, where its affecting, what part of car, where, etc
Then correspondence from supplier giving cost, timings
Other bits of info then had to fill in the template form and give comments etc
The 2 HR guys were lovely but the people in the breakout rooms for the group exercise looked like they wanted to be anywhere but there. They promised individual feedback but I got a very generic rejection email after the assessment and wouldn't respond when I asked for specific feedback. Also advertised job as in London but discovered during the interview that its mainly in random offices around the UK....very misleading.

I applied through other source. I interviewed at Quick Release
Interview
The whole interview process was friendly, challenging, and fun. They made efforts to help you relax and be your true self, and I feel very respected. This is not so common in other companies’ interviews where they might disregard your time.

Question 1
It’s a group exercise, so they asked for a 5-min final pitch to “investors”.
