I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Deutsche Bank (London, England) in Aug 2023
Interview
The interview itself was easy, standard questions regarding the previous experience, why this particular role, etc. however, it took two months to hear back from HR after sending the CV and there was no feedback after my first stage interview until I specifically requested an update after a couple of weeks. The process is way too long and frustrating.
