I applied online. I interviewed at Pottermore (London, England) in Oct 2023
Interview
There was poor communication throughout the process regarding booking interviews, feedback from interviews and what was specifically being looked for in candidates to be moved onto the next stage for this role.
I applied through an employee referral. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Pottermore (London, England) in Oct 2018
Interview
Comprehensive process, meeting with senior stakeholders, peers and potential team members. An exacting process that tested a lot of different aspects and was quite tough at times, but was good to be properly tested.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe an example approach to re-platforming a website with millions of active monthly users? How would you plan for migration of technology, test for quality of the replacement platform and migrate users with minimal disruption?
I believe the interviewer had 30 spare minutes to fill in, I cannot justify otherwise the attitude during the whole interview: intermittently giggling, giving confusing and confused answers on questions about the position, making the process as uncomfortable as possible. I regret I didn't put the phone down mid-conversation.
