The interview was very straight to the point. Be ready for the technical tests.

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
What is a challenge you've faced, and how did you overcome it?
Quick process, but managers seemed very uptight and very rude. Did not enjoy the environment and atmosphere. The building had this peculiar odour, I would not be able to sit in a room with that smell everyday.
I was described as unprofessional, you need to be clear cut for this process and not friendly so dress in a full suit, this was at the final stage in person interview interview.
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Keyence (London, England) in Oct 2025
