I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Thales (Crawley, West Sussex, South East England, England) in Jun 2017
Interview
Very friendly relaxed atmosphere.
Slightly annoying when the interviewer for the competency questions was playing on her phone during the interview.
Get up to speed with your technical interviews they are quite in depth and will make or break your application.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
The usual competency questions.
Technical: Look at the specific role you are applying for and find out what you might need to know, the fundamentals and a few detailed points which may help.
