J'ai postulé via une agence de recrutement. Le processus a pris 4 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Thales (Irvine, CA) en août 2012
Entretien
Initially got a call from a consultancy, who arranged interview. Went there, but the job was not relevant. But the hiring manager liked me and my profile and hence referred to another hiring manager who was looking for my kind of skills. Then got second interview with another hiring manager, who was very technical. Was impressed by me and my interview and then had last interview with other heads of department, namely the architecture team, Development team, Testing Team. They all liked me.
Interview questions were more technical checking whether I have the skills which they require, Also, brought out real time scenario and had to give solution for it.

J'ai postulé en ligne. Le processus a pris 2 semaines. J'ai passé un entretien chez Thales (Singapour) en mai 2026
Entretien
When arranging a date for the first round online interview, they allowed me to pick a public holiday so I did just that. But no one came. I sat there waiting for a full 30 minutes before I left. Afterwards, they clarified that the interviewer was on holiday and asked me to wait for new updates. There is no update ever since.
Completely unrealistic in terms of expectations, HR and Management left me with the impression that they did not really want to hire anyone. I was left wondering why they even invited me in the first place. Applied to a job that I currently hold in a another company, which ultimately seemed to confuse them as they kept talking about the complexities of a job in Thales, even to someone that is working within the sector.

Phone interview first for communication and basic qualifications, then afterward a technical interview to evaluate problem solving and coding skills through live questioning. I heard back within a week of technical interview
