I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at Birketts (Chelmsford, England)
Interview
Two interviews with experienced based questions. The second interview was more relaxed and more personality based questions, presumably to see if you fit the team. Overall the interviews were great.

Question 1
Give me three examples of when you have faced challenging situations.
I was invited to 2 interviews before being offered the job. The first interview was a straightforward question-based interview and was then followed by a short written assessment which included drafting an engagement letter. The second interview involved a further question-based interview with other members of the team and a short presentation about my home town. I think this was simply done to measure presenting skills and general confidence.
