I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lloyds Banking Group in Dec 2017
Interview
You have five days to complete the video interview. I expected the sonru interface, but instead it was Lloyds' own, which was not 'very' robust. 30 seconds to prepare for giving the answer, 90 seconds to answer. They probably change the questions every year as the questions were not the same as in 2016. 9 questions
