I interviewed at Barclays (Northampton, Inglaterra)
Interview
Was very relaxed. One interview for more interpersonal and behavioral questions but some technical questions were asked by a non-technical person. Second interview was from a more technical person. The interviewer admired my honesty when I didn't understand certain topics however I was still able to answer most questions well
The video interview asked very generic questions , very different to what you would expect. They had more situational based questions which may seem hard to some individuals, the prep time was also not enough

Question 1
What would you do if you were asked to prepare a presentation at different country ?
It was 2 30 minutes interviews back to back. Relatively okay questions, it was very behavioural. I enjoyed my time talking to both interviewers, they shared a lot about their experiences and would willing to know more about me and my experiences.
