J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 mois. J'ai passé un entretien chez KBR (Leatherhead, England) en févr. 2020
Entretien
Assessment centre consisted of:
- Spatial awareness test (completed before assessment day) by SHL
- Introduction to KBR by managers/engineers
- Presentations to assessment centre students and staff on your greatest achievement (pre-prepared)
- Group activity (how to increase the sustainability of the KBR office)
- Technical interview (general quizzing about what's on your CV, no specific technical questions were asked of me)
- HR interview (typical HR questions - motivations, reasons for applying etc.)
- Numerical and literacy tests (again by SHL)
- Hand-written paragraph of why you want to work for KBR
General Comments:
Decent assessment centre overall, the person who did my HR interview spoke very quietly, making it difficult to understand what she was saying sometimes.
General demeanour of the assessment staff was somewhat cold, with one of the presentation assessors being unnecessarily critical and brutal to one of the candidates whilst they were giving their presentation, over their use of the word 'we' instead of 'I'.
If you attend the assessment day and fund your travel to the office, do not expect to receive your expenses back with any urgency. I attended in February 2020 and as of June 2020 am still waiting to receive my expenses back. I contacted the HR representative several times and still did not receive a response.
Overall, a decent assessment day with fun and interesting tasks, perhaps let down slightly by the demeanour of the staff that run the day.
P.S. The food was great (croissants and coffee on arrival) and some very tasty wraps/sandwiches at lunch. I guess this makes up for the expenses...

Appplied via website, sent CV and was selected for assessment centre after online tests. The assessment centre was fairly easy but they only base their decision on technical knowledge. Yes ONLY. Doesn't matter if you screwed up everything else or didnt follow any other guidelines. HR department is in shambles. They took 2 months plus to reply back (after saying 1 week) with feedback given in broken english and minimal.
