I applied online. I interviewed at GLG (London, England) in Jun 2017
Interview
It was a long process. First, they called me, and I had a 30 min phone interview. The person at the time said he would arrange a Skype interview for me to go on the second stage but then he never contacted me back. Thre months later I re-applied for a similar position in the company and got a phone interview again. This time it was a different person, and they told me that the previous employee had left the company reason why there was no follow-up. She still had my name on the record, and it had a good recommendation. I went further on to two more interview stages. The first stage I was brought in and interviewed with four different people and did a role play. Each interview of half an hour. Then I was told that I passed on to the final stage. The last stage was three interviews with current employees, also of 20 to 30 min long. This process continued for a two-month period. The feedback they gave me was poor and not helpful for me to grow or to improve my skills.
First round interview included introductory CV discussion, and then a role play exercise and a case study exercise.
Final round consisted of 3 interviews, and was competency based and culture based.

Interview
The first step is sending CV and Cover Letter online. Afterwards, they invite you to do a video interview. If they like you, they invite you for a phone interview with a recruiter. The recruiter was very pushy and I did not prepare at all so I was not successful. There would have been 2 more rounds of interviews with role plays and case studies before the job offer.
