I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Huawei Technologies in Apr 2016
Interview
Interview was rather awkward at times as there were language barriers. Although I mentioned that I am unable to converse in mandarin, they insisted me to do so at the beginning which was not a nice feel at that point as I am not comfortable speaking in mandarin. The questions are kind of typical questions you would expect from any interviews. Overall the interview was not that difficult.

I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Huawei Technologies (Reading, England) in May 2017
Interview
Major communication issues. The interviewers were less than proficient in English and I had a majorly difficult time to understand the questions. The interview was very different from what I had been told to expect by the recruiter, in terms of the technologies, experience and the actual work involved. Once the interview was over, they did not let me leave the room, so that they could privately discuss the result with a senior manager based in China. I was unsurprisingly rejected by the senior Engineer, who I was told had been listening in on the interview without my knowledge. To be honest, it was one of the strangest experiences I have had. I doubt I would have accepted the role.
