I applied through an employee referral. The process took 3 days. I interviewed at PlayStation (San Diego, CA) in Dec 2015
Interview
I had a phone interview and a week later I was in a 'class' that walked you through what the job was. If you had a certain score you got to the next phase of waiting for a position on a title to open. I spoke with the trainer after class and got talking about games. I got a call for the following day. I dont think that they test anymore so this is probably outdated
I applied online. I interviewed at PlayStation (Liverpool, England) in Jan 2018
Interview
The interview is in two parts, one of which is a panel with 1-2 people where they ask you interview questions and get to know you ect. The other is a practical where you have to play a game and note down bugs and glitches you find in the build.

At first there was a casual phone call for the company to get to know my qualifications, knowledge and to get a basis of what I can do. An interview date was then set for me to attend in Liverpool.

Question 1
What are your 3 favourite games and why?
Why do you want to work for Playstation?
Here is a can of Coke, how would you go about testing this?
There was also a test where they set up devkits with controllers and gave us a broken game to play and find as many defects as possible and write them out in a report format, that they would explain before the test.
