Question 1
What was the hardest decision you've made in the workplace?
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Jacobs (Cardiff, Gales) in Mar 2019
Interview
I applied through the taleo ATS. I submitted my CV and resume by the end of February 2019. I received an email invitation for interview 2 weeks later. The interview at the Cardiff office consisted of 8 behavioral and one technical questions. Interviewers and staff at reception were friendly and welcoming. What makes the whole experience negative is that I learned that I was unsuccessful 6 weeks (!) after the interview even though I made sure to send 2 follow up emails to HR which received no reply whatsoever. I received the news following a last request for an update. Count yourself lucky if you can get either an update or a feedback from them. I'm still waiting for feedback which I know will never come.
I don't wish to go into the details here but HR at Jacobs really has no respect for the candidate's time and effort. It is a wonder how some of them were offered a job there in the first place. I encountered unprofessional, rude and arrogant attitude from at least one HR personnel, that if allowed to continue will definitely harm the image of the company. Really disappointing experience.
