I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Rolls-Royce (Blankenfelde-Mahlow) in Jul 2017
Interview
After submitting my application, I made a pretty standard online test and after 4 weeks I became the invitation for AC. It started with a coffee & talk, where the applicants first met. After that, we made a small part of the same online test in written form, in order to show that we did it by ourselves. Then, there was skills and experience interview with one of the assessors. In this Interview you have to present yourself in a given time and then the assessor asks you standard interview questions. What was the biggest problem you had to solve? What was the result? etc. After that, there was a group activity, in which you had to make a paper plane considering the given market requirements and costs. It was quite fun. After that round we went together to lunch and then there was the 2nd round of interview. Here the assessors ask you about technical questions about manufacturing. Some can be really tough and unexpected. After that the AC is over and you have a chance to ask your questions to a trainee who comes to Q&A round.
very straight forward an simple - basic questions - just understand the basics of a jet engine and you will be fine - you need to have a good cv to get past the ats scanners

Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Describe a scenario where you have to overcome a challenge. What did you do? What was the outcome?
After a barebones phone screening with a recruiter, radio silence. Not even an automated rejection even after reaching out. The way jobs are treating candidates these days like they're disposable is ridiculous.
