I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Tesco in Apr 2017
Interview
I got a call a few weeks after I applied online. I was told about the company and what the team is made up of. I was asked simple questions and I was told I will be invited for a technical interview soon. I got a call after about 4weeks to schedule a time for the technical interview. I was asked to write a programme to find a number in a Fibonacci sequence. After that I was asked questions along my expertise in optimisation. Examples of minimisation and maximisation problems, how I would solve dynamic problems. I gave examples of real problems I have worked on in the past. They seemed happy with how I answered the questions. I didn't hear again from them until another month where I got a call saying I passed but the position has been filled.

I applied online. The process took 1+ week. I interviewed at Tesco in May 2015
Interview
The interview was done by two members of the team (other than the ones I was advised) and the format included an introduction by them about the team, an introduction by me, and a 10min coding test through shared screen. The format was also different than the 'informal chat' I was adviesd to expect by Tesco HR who set up the interview..
