I applied in-person. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at 118118 in Feb 2015
Interview
One telephone interview with HR
One face-to-face interview with global head
One written exercise for US HR director
The feedback process was very poor,. You need to chase HR after every single stage. Once the position has been filled, you still need to call to be told your application was unsuccessful and for feedback
