      Research Lead Interview

      Mar 7, 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Neutral experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Wise (London, England) in Nov 2021

      Interview

      The interview process was long, intensive and a bit disjointed. Each stage – I went through 4 in the course of a month – felt like I was interviewing for a different role. That being said, most of the people I met in the nearly 5 hours of cumulative on-screen Zoom time were very friendly. What I didn't like was that the company assigned 3 different recruiters to my application process.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      1. Stage (Written Responses): Had to answer several questions about my research philosophy, reasons for wanting to join the company, etc. This was in addition to the standard application documents 2. Stage: one-on-one session/Q&A with research director 3. Stage: one-on-one session/Q&A with senior design researcher 4. Stage: case study presentation in front of multi-disciplinary team
