      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Oxford Instruments (Yatton, South West England, England) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      HR was helpful, line manager was borderline incompetent, however, there is a new manager there now, so process should hopefully be more sophisticated. Applied online and took a few weeks to get interview, once interviewed, job offer was extended in 2 days.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      At Plasmatech arm I was asked extremely basic questions, like voltage of an open circuit and what a resistor was. Questioned the the basic level of the questions and the interviews raised his voice and criticized my degree in electronics.
