Application Advice:

Research the role that you would be applying for, Micro Focus handle a lot of Legacy technologies for other companies so it's likely a good idea to learn about some of them.

Interview Advice:

Practice how to respond to a coding problem on the fly. During the interview you will be tested on your technical knowledge. The answers don't need to be perfect as long as your logic is sound, but this makes it easy to mess up explanations if you're not confident.

Application Advice:

Can't comment too much on actually applying since I was approached by Pareto about the job.

As part of the application, I had to do a aptitude test, a programming test and a phone interview. This was followed by an assessment day

Interview Advice:

There was an assessment day that you have to attend, so if you live far away make sure you book a hotel so you don't have to leave in 2 in the morning. Don't be too fussed about spending money on travel as they will reimburse it later.

The assessment day was split up into 3 separate sections, first as to deduce communication and teamwork skills which had us form groups and work with other candidates.

The second part was a formal interview with pareto. This is was a normal interview which had all the generic questions that you would expect in a interview

Finally there was a technical interview with at least one member of senior staff, in which they give you a problem to solve. They will guide you through the problem so don't get discouraged if you feel that they helped you out too much.
