I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Keyence (Birmingham, England) in Feb 2021
Interview
1st stage was to do 3 minute prerecorded videos to some questions. There was 3 questions. Things like 'Why Keyence?', 'Tell us one thing about you?'
2nd Stage. Mechanical test. Physics based, pivots, cogs, etc.
3rd Stage. Morning 30 minute interview with two interviewers, lots of questions. Finish with a role play to sell something. Then if successful there is a second question interview the questions are more applied to the role. Followed by a three minutre pre prepared interview that you must present.
4th Stage. There is a final stage I didn't get to with someone even higher, and then you get a job offer I believe.

I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Keyence (Uxbridge, England) in Jul 2025
Interview
CV submitted through a recruiter. The progress to a physics/maths test. After this is a first interview. Then a psychometric test followed by an assessment centre, which is the final stage.
A Skype interview after I applied online. Skype interviews lasted about 10 mins and they asked three questions, which you can find looking around the glassdoor website. The next stage was a formal interview.
