I applied online. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Rolls-Royce in Mar 2012
Interview
Applied online. A phone interview, fully technical. Shortlisted for Assessment Day. It took 5 hours on Assessment day. Started with a presentation about myself infront of 5 Managers from different sections of Rolls Royce. Then a team exercise to build a tower from spaghetti sticks. After that a 1:1 technical interview, which was no doubt difficult. And then SHL test consisting of basic Maths and English reading. Maths was very basic with Percentages and Ratios but English was a bit confusing. Shortlisted after Assessment day for a panel interview, which was all based on previous experience and technical knowledge of the field applied for.
very straight forward an simple - basic questions - just understand the basics of a jet engine and you will be fine - you need to have a good cv to get past the ats scanners
Structured standard process developed by HR which is used world wide
First they asked about what you know about the company/ role to test if you have done your homework.
Sometimes they require you to prepare a presentation related to the role prior to the interview date. You will be given time to present.
Next you will be asked 2 or more scenario based questions.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a scenario where you have to overcome a challenge. What did you do? What was the outcome?
After a barebones phone screening with a recruiter, radio silence. Not even an automated rejection even after reaching out. The way jobs are treating candidates these days like they're disposable is ridiculous.
