I had a random maths test and then got kicked out. It was super unprofessional, they didn't give me any feedback and weren't interested in talking to me. I definitely wouldn't recommend applying for jobs here. I had to pay for my own transport and took a whole day off for the recruitment, only to end up out of pocket and with no explanation.
