I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Postcode Lottery (Edinburgh, Scotland) in Jul 2018
Interview
Interview process consisted of two stages: an initial phone interview, followed by a group interview at the People's Postcode Lottery office on Charlotte Square, Edinburgh. The former lasted half an hour, whilst the latter lasted an hour and a half. Two software development team leads were present in both interviews, and a member of HR attended the group interview. The full process from application deadline until hearing the final outcome lasted two weeks.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Do you hold any experience with PostgreSQL in both querying data and administrative tasks?
It was good, although they ended up going with someone else. Well thought out task and process, with enough time for my own questions. Would interview again if something opened up again
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We’ve worked hard to make sure our selection process is interesting for candidates so I’m glad you found the interview experience to be a positive one overall.
We recently launched a new career site so maybe there will be the right next role for you there soon. Thanks again for applying and taking the time to interview with us.
