Started with a technical phone interview regarding mostly C++ and data structures followed by screen sharing interview on which I had to solve a few easy problems (mostly related to data structures) and lastly a behavioral "HR" interview.

I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Barclays (Pune) in Sep 2020
Interview
It was telephonic. It took 45 mins. It was very difficult. Asked very tough questions in STL.
Also, there was Unix requirement and I had windows experience. So, they asked what if they hire me and if I am comfortable in Linux platform for coding.
I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Barclays (Londres, Angleterre) in Apr 2016
Interview
I was brought in via an agency along with a number of other contractors. Initial face-to-face technical interview was easy, cruised along. A face-to-face behavioral interview with the program manager followed.
