      Devops Engineer - Graduate Interview

      14 Mar 2015
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied in-person. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Sky (London, England) in Feb 2015

      Interview

      Standard application questions after which in house recruiter called to ask for a suitable time for the telephone interview. Telephone interview was scheduled for 1 hour but only a 1/2 hour talk was told to be expected. Turned out to be only about 20 mins. Following the call was told that I passed the telephone interview and scheduled the assessment centre in two weeks time. The assessment centre was at Osterley with 3 other graduates. Fairly informal yet formal style. (if you know what I mean). Started off with ice breaker type group intros and later given an insight into the programme and Sky as an organisation. Followed by one non-assessed and one assessed group discussion. (Plan and discuss for the group exercise). 3-4 hours of Raspberry Pi based programming. One speed interview in the middle of the exercise. Presentation of results to their staff.

      Graduate Devops Engineer Interview

      30 May 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 8 weeks. I interviewed at Sky in May 2023

      Interview

      Very terrible and unprofessional experience. The interviewers have obvious tech problem but they insisted no. This affected all the interview process and the interviewer refused to acknowledge it. I find it hard to imagine how they can judge a candidate from a technical aspect when even the interviewers don't have a relevant certificate in AWS. Very disappointed and wasted my time

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      AWS services, docker, git and CICD

      Graduate Devops Engineer Interview

      24 Jul 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Leeds, England
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at Sky (Leeds, England) in May 2023

      Interview

      online coding test + video interview + motivation interview + accessment centre (AC took place on May 4th) The old lady in the motivation interview was really kind, but the good impression she left was soon ruined by the unprofessional engineers in the assessment centre In the assessment centre, we had to complete tasks on AWS in pairs with another candidate and assisted by 2 AWS engineers. I understood that it was designed to show teamwork skills, so I was patient and tried to assist my partner as much as I could. However, the engineers didn't provide clear instructions and were unfriendly. I understand that communication skills might not be neccessary for them as they are just engineers, but their lack of professionalism was concerning. Additionally, they didn't have an AWS certification. I wonder how they got hired......
