I applied online. I interviewed at Alzheimer's Society (London, England) in Jun 2026
Interview
I had to prepare and deliver a presentation as part of the process. Two of the three panellists were very engaged, however, the third person (who was actually the line manager for this role), appeared very uninterested and gave me the impression from the start that I was just making up the numbers. I was therefore not surprised that I didn't make it to the next stage, however, I am very disappointed that I was offered feedback on my performance yet two weeks on, I've not heard anything despite chasing.

Interview
Prior to the interview i emailed the recruitment team with questions which were not answered, which is interesting as during the interview they empathised the need for communication with different stakeholders. The interview itself consisted primarily of basic HR-related questions, which were straightforward to answer. However, both interviewers appeared somewhat disengaged and gave the impression that they did not particularly want to be there, which made the overall experience feel less welcoming and somewhat off-putting. As a result, it was difficult to build rapport and fully engage in the conversation. I also emailed requesting feedback after the interview which was not provided.

Question 1
Can you tell us about a time you pushed back to a manager
I had a very professional, friendly, and intellectually stimulating interview at the Alzheimer's Society. I was thoroughly impressed with their inclusion of lived experience into the process and the questions they asked.
