I've applied for a Scrum Master position after seeing the job advertised on Linkedin. 10 days later I received an email inviting me for a "Customer Experience Recruitment event" at London Transport Museum. 4 days later I went to the event. There were around 50 people who applied for different technology opportunities. We had a chance to meet Product Owners, Developers, Directors, etc. It was a really interesting evening, as we could get to know the company and some employees. I left the place feeling that TFL was a company I would love to work for. I was expecting some contact from TFL to say what were the next steps. Nothing for a week. Contacted them back and only got an answer 15 days after the event. The person said they were checking all the CVs and would get in contact in 2 weeks time. It's been a month now. No answer, no feedback, no yes/no, nothing.
It's a shame as the event showed a really promising way of recruiting talents.
