I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Dyson (Malmesbury, England)
Interview
I was Interviewed by two of the potential line managers, if I were to get the role. Both of them were very knowledgable and were also very friendly. They went through my portfolio, then asked numerous questions about the projects. They were very keen on product costs as well as manufacturing processes.
It would have been nice to have seen a little more of the head office as I went from reception, straight to a meeting room, then back out through reception. I guess confidentiality prevented this.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Put on the spot- 'if you were to redesign a kitchen appliance, what would it be? What would you do to it to make it different'. Had to list various things as well as many ways that they could be achieved.
I had 2 rounds in total, both was online. The 1st round consisted of mainly behavioral questions, and it was automated on a website (no interviewer). The 2nd round was a technical assessment where i had to do a presentation.
Thorough, engaging and comprehensive. For me, it was a multiple step interview with tough questions asked - from written to online recorded interview to case study to actual panel interview.

I applied online. The process took 6 weeks. I interviewed at Dyson (Singapore) in Aug 2024
Interview
First HireVue interview quite average. Prepare yourself as you only have 3mins for each question and only 3 tries. It will also include a quick math and similar figure game. You need to react fast to achieve higher level. Final interview very technical. You are given 24hrs to study and prepare a case study on designing a product concept. Final interview mostly was about the design you propose.
You must think outside the box. Even if you dont, at least have good reasoning. If you know how competitive Dyson is, then prepare to give a spectacular answer.
