I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at BT Group (Bengaluru) in Aug 2018
Interview
There was one Online Test that included both aptitude and Advanced Java related MCQ questions. It was an Aspiring minds test. I cleared it. It happened at their office. The result took almost a week to come. There 45 (30 aptitude and 15 java) questions.
Then I was called for a face to face interview around 15 days later and it was a managerial round. General discussion on current project, latest updates in Java and resume related technologies. Overall a very good discussion, went on for around 40 mins. I cleared that as well.
After around 15 days the HR called me and did the salary negotiation. I was offered more than the offer that I was holding.
The interview process is very slow but overall happy with how things went.
The interview process at BT group was a very bad experience.
I was called of into BT office to give the interview and was told that all rounds of interview will be concluded on the same day. The interview was scheduled at 1:30 as I reached there I was made to sit in a closed room with no clue of any interview till 4:30 and post the interview I was told that one round of interview will be done online on the next day.
The other online round went well and the hr kept me waiting for the feedback for couple of weeks and was not replying to the mails as well and later she called and said that position is already closed.
The interview process was so smooth i have to give an online test first than got 3-4 interview for the position which was all DSA based questions which you can find on leetcode medium to hard medium and some were easy level too
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at BT Group (Cheltenham, England) in Jan 2024
Interview
I have autism. I was originally told two weeks in advance that my interview would be a conversation, regarding my current role/duties and myself. On the evening before, the BT recruiter informed me there would be a technical portion at the end of the day.
This left me with one hour to "prepare", before needing to sleep and drive 3 hours to the interview.
Unfortunately, due to how autism affects me, I can't just pivot to being verbally technically minded.
Despite attempting to communicate with the BT representative, they did not answer my calls or email. (and still have not weeks later). I was unable to postpone the technical portion of the interview.
Indirect feedback received via my recruiter informed me that the behavioural/role portion went well, but that the technical did not. As expected.
I did attempt to raise the issue at the interview, but staff did not know what to do or how to handle the situation and continued the process.
I will not be interviewing with BT again as I do not believe they take disability hiring seriously.
