I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at Trustly (Sliema) in Sep 2021
Interview
Unnecessarily lengthy. I was contacted around 1 week after applying, with the first interview being set more than one month after being contacted. The second interview was much quicker, but communication was lax and vague. A few weeks after the second interview I was offered the position, with the recruiter always apologising and telling me how busy he is and that he just didn't have the time to keep me updated or send me the signed contract. Finally, a few days before starting the job, the recruiter calls me and withdraws the position despite having signed the contract and having resigned from my previous job.
