Candidate interview experiences
First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Savills.
Accountant
It's a 2 stage interview process, starting with a remote interview on Teams, followed by an in-person interview. After the interview, you'll typically be given a test covering Excel and Word skills. They ask a range of questions and you can expect to hear back within a week.
- What motivates you to want to work at this company?
Accountant
I was sent by the recruitment agency to have an interview in the Savills premises. First the interviewer that I should have had an interview with never showed up and then they were looking for a suitable replacement that turned up late. At the beginning the interviewer appeared friendly but then started asking all sorts of questions as if they were checking if I was lying in my CV. I felt very uncomfortable to say at least. It ended up more like an interrogation than an interview. This shows a toxic environment and straight away I knew that this is not the place I would want to work. After a few days another recruitment agency called and said that they are always looking for the same role to fulfil. You can also notice that they couldn't find an appropriate person for the job even though they interviewed with a lot of suitable candidates.
- Can you explain why you left your previous employment?
- Could you list the software and programs you utilized in your past positions?
- What are your salary expectations for this role?
Senior Accountant
It was a two-step interview process. The interview itself was pretty straightforward, no difficult questions. They mostly asked general questions about my experience and personality. I heard the team was great until everyone quit because of bad management.
- Can you elaborate on your professional background?
- Could you guide me through your resume?
- Tell me about your personality.
