I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at BAE Systems (London, England) in May 2021
Interview
Completed the online test and after being successful was invited to a phone call interview which was fairly straightforward followed by a technical interview which tested my knowledge of the firm and looked into my resume where we discussed my experiences.

Question 1
Q: Why BAE systems?
Q: Questions regarding my resume
Did not hear back prior to interview stage, nor rejection email. Poor communication. They use psychometric tests like other places which seems a little pointless and time consuming. Would be great to actually tell applicants their result rather than just nothing.

I applied online. I interviewed at BAE Systems (Rochester, South East England, England) in Jan 2026
Interview
Overall interview was good. Started the interview with behavioural questions "Tell me about a time when..." and ended it with a technical question. The technical question was tricky and its obvious they were looking for a specific answer.
