I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at IBM (London, England) in Mar 2020
Interview
Very positive, lots of communication during process. Friendly/approachable staff, open to any questions. Efficient process. Good oppurtunity to meet other potential interns at assessment centre, clear instructions / Direction on how this works also.
The interview process can vary by company and role, but most follow a fairly standard sequence. Here’s what you can generally expect:
You submit your application (resume, cover letter, portfolio if relevant). A recruiter or hiring manager reviews it to see if your background matches the role.
It’s very easy, was a quick call, and they asked about behavioral questions and skills. Told me that if they liked my profile they would call me in the next days.
The interview process was a positive experience overall—well organized, professional, and welcoming. Communication was clear throughout, and the interviewers created an open, respectful environment that made it easy to have a genuine conversation.
