I applied online. I interviewed at IHS Markit in Jan 2019
Interview
Overall good experience. Nice interviews and interviewers open to offer feedback. The negative side is that I waited for the final feedback for 3 weeks.
Application sent to the recruiter. Both CV and cover letter
First round: skype call mainly motivational and on the personal background. General questions on key trends in the Automotive industry
Second round: skype call for which I had to prepare in advance a 10 minutes presentation on a strategical analysis comparing Ferrari vs Rolls Royce. Numerous questions after the presentation in order to further test my knowledge and interest in the automotive industry.

I applied online. I interviewed at IHS Markit (Londres, Inglaterra) in May 2021
Interview
Applied for the position in London, UK. Heard back with a pymetrics test. After passing it I was contacted by the recruiter after approx. 1 month for the virtual interview. I would say it was a waste of time. There were 3 people who took the interview and gave me a coding question to solve - Q: Combine Anagrams. I solved it within few minutes with the most optimal solution. The interview went absolutely rocking. They were highly impressed with the time complexity and also stated that this is the best solution we have so far come across.
After few hours, heard back from the recruiter that I have not been selected because I don't have experience in C# language. This is so dissapointing and unprofessional. If I don't have experience in a programming language then why you conducted my interview!! You already had my CV and can see where my experience lies.
Poor experience. Not recommended.
