I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at BAE Systems (Rochester, South East England, England) in Oct 2024
Interview
It was a recorded interview over Hirevue, and there were 3 competency based interview questions. It was pretty simple but I believe it was assessed using AI to observe your body language and find buzz words.

Question 1
Tell me a time you chose the harder option when there were easier ones
Overall the interview was pretty chill; just surface level questions and the interviewer wasn't intense. Asked generic things about myself and not technical at all. Basically just screening and making sure you're a decent person to work with.

It was a virtual interview where you just talk to the camera. The questions mainly analysed soft skills and general scenarios, with very little technical content explicity asked for, although you can definitely mention past experience.
