Hi Guys,
Today I would like to share one of the worst interview experience of my life. Interview is a that stage of life where we present ourselves to the people who are the medium of entry to the organization where we are being interviewed. Like 'first impression is the last impression' stands out for the candidate; similarly it is applicable for the recruiters. A recruiter who is responsible to hire talented individual for the organization should also have decent personality to deal with the candidates.
I applied for a role at #Loblaw and got shortlisted- invited for phone interview and first in-person interview. After which I got a technical task to do and submit (which I did). After few days, I was invited for the second interview for which I was notified to prepare the same case study that I solved and submitted by the talent acquisition personnel. As an exciting candidate, with lots of aspirations I went to attend the 2nd interview and I have no words to explain the kind of disrespect and bad experience I came across. First of all, interviewers didn't had enough time as per the time slot, then why they invite me? It is not nice that you have invited a candidate and leave the interview in first 5 minutes( one of them left in first 5 minutes). It is totally disrespectful and shows the bad attitude towards the candidate.
The another issue was one of the recuriter was playing with the phone and some people came and ask to leave the room because they reserved it. Surprised...??? I was also shocked to see the bad coordination in one of the top companies like #Loblaw in Canada. Furthermore, I was asked why you didn't solve this n that???? The questions which were not part of the task given to me... In addition to, if the first interviewer was happy with the solution I gave for case study,why they were making the situation worst and giving me instant stress. They were so rude and were telling me ''Don't tell me, It's me who designed the case study". O wow, I didn't knew that top companies like #Loblaw do not taught 'Communication ethics' to their employees.
However, despite of the uneasy situation, I was giving them the right answers.
I still wonder today-' Is it the way interviews are being conducted at Loblaw to harras the candidates and disrespect them???'
Honestly speaking,it was the worst interview of my life not becayse I was not qualified enough but because of bad treatment that I get there. But I am happy that I get to know about the dictorial environment at #Loblaw.
