I had two interviews, one with the agency and then another with the RBS team. They mainly asked general questions about my past experience, my personal and professional values, how I communicate, and if I would be a good fit for the role and the company's culture.

Behavioral Technical

The interview was okay, asked some standard questions about handling escalations and risks. I was interviewed by two people, who seemed a bit new and nervous themselves, which actually helped me relax. What I didn't realize beforehand was that they would also conduct a credit history check after the interview, and any negative findings would result in no offer being extended.

Technical Coding

Went through the interview process for a C# developer role at RBS. The technical interview was thorough, covering problem-solving and C# knowledge. They assessed coding skills directly and communication was good. Received feedback quickly. The interview process was efficient, which was unexpected for a bank. The company seems to value both technical expertise and teamwork. It's a bank, so expect a corporate environment. Overall, the interview was a positive experience. If you're a C# developer looking for a role that values skills and professionalism, it's worth considering.

It was a 4 stage interview process. I interviewed with the team manager, some other key people, and wider team members. In one interview, there were 4 people and some looked bored. The questions covered my experience, their own roles, and didn't have too many nice warm introductions.
