I applied online. The process took 7 weeks. I interviewed at Barclays (Sunderland, North East England, England) in Jul 2016
Interview
Process was straightforward. Online application followed by assessment then a telephone interview and an interview on-site.
On-site interview was a little tricky as the interview questions I'd been told by the recruiters as preparation were different to what was asked on the day.
With the start date being close to the interview date, I chased them up after a short-while and was promised callbacks, although shortly after I received an email stating I had been unsuccessful. I requested feedback, which was promised, although the recruiters and Barclays went silent and ignored my requests
The job seemed like a good position and the benefits were decent, although I couldn't recommend Barclays based on the fact that they adopt this culture of failing to follow up on interviews, despite promises of feedback.

I applied through other source. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Barclays (Truro, England) in Apr 2026
Interview
The in person interview was last round after a test and call screening. I thought they gonna ask me 15 questions however they only asked 3. The interview was only 10 mins , I was shock because it is too short and make me feel like I did so bad that why they didn’t want to ask me more. I didn’t get the offer but I wanted to know why they only asked me 3 questions. And I feel like I should have dressed more slay as well. Because everyone dress is stunning. But I think the vibe was quite good but eventually none offer
