Presentation Group

Had a couple HR interviews and then a presentation to check communication skills. There was also an assessment centre to see how you work with others. All the interviews were online and pretty short.

Behavioral Presentation

The interview process was handled very unprofessionally. We were left waiting in the lobby for over an hour and a half past the scheduled start time, with no one informing us about the delay. There were two interviewers. The first conducted a basic screening interview, followed by a presentation, which was quite straightforward. This first assessor was pleasant. However, the second assessor was not, acting hostile from the beginning and even refusing to shake my hand. It seemed clear he had no intention of hiring anyone that day. They offered guest tickets to a nearby motor museum, which I now regret not taking as it would have been a better use of my time. Feedback was never provided despite repeated requests, which goes against the Gradcracker pledge JLR signed.

They had a normal assessment centre, then gave a presentation about the company's latest programme. They asked me questions like: why this position? What skills do you have that will benefit this role? What about the company do you know? Explain some processes in manufacturing?
