I applied through a recruiter. I interviewed at JLR (Solihull, England) in Mar 2026
Interview
Simple and straightforward interview process. One of the simplest I have come across. Really depends on what the organisation decides for the recruitment cycle but for me, we were given a topic to prepare a presentation on and discuss this on Teams. I found it easy and enjoyable.

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at JLR (Gaydon, England) in Feb 2021
Interview
The interview process itself weas very good and well controlled. However, upon not getting an offer, I was refused any good feedback despite them offering it. A lot of the feedback was basically 'it's not good because others were better'. All in all, generally a good interview process, but it could work on its feedback.
