I went to an interview with A (someone in Corporate Services), B, and C (interviewed role's relevant department). I'm here to say that I completely wasted my time during the interview. You can find the job description and the disclaimer here (Glassdoor doesn't allow links). The phrase "only shortlisted candidates will be informed for interviews" stands out in particular. One particular section of the interview was the manager B saying that he didn't find any experience on my resume that was pertinent to events and wasn't confident I was qualified for the job. Now, I want to know WHY I was invited to attend an interview. I'm writing to report a breach of civil interview procedure. Evidently, one or more of the parties didn't carefully consider the fit of candidates they contacted. Candidates were SHAMED as a result of this. I'm not sure if this constitutes appropriate interview etiquette. There is no sense in wasting everyone's resources. Kindly look into it and issue the appropriate cautions. Either HR was to blame (in which case, this HR employee needs to brush up on her understanding of what "selection" implies), or it was the employees of the interviewed role's Department. In either case, I'm not sure who is at fault, but given that they explicitly stated they will only get in touch with individuals who made the short list, I would presume they did their homework. My primary complaint was that B appeared to be attending a pointless interview while I, the applicant, should have been crying victim for being selected while not living up to their standards. The only conclusion that can be drawn is that they aren't serious about hiring and that this is abuse. Most likely solely intend to interview and humiliate applicants. HORRIBLE. Delighted I made their actions public here. Please take note that there is email proof that they reviewed my resume. My experience might be an exceptional one. The job posting, however, is quite new and was only published four days ago. They are still conducting a number of interviews, I was told. If such mistakes could affect me, they could affect other candidates just as badly, if not worse, if there were no checks and balances in place. Please take note of how serious this scenario was, as neither of the three (here, three brains) people understood the issue prior to the interview. So much for being cocky enough to say they have reviewed it. I detect unethical behavior in HR governance, recruiting governance, and a grave inadequacy of hazy individuals overseeing managerial responsibilities.
