Hello, and thank you for your review of your perception of the interview process at Webtitle Agency. If I may address your concerns; Our Company harbors a casual environment, in which everyone, including the owners wear jeans on a regular basis. The comment was not made in sarcasm, though we apologize if you received it that way. The discussion was to let you know formally, that you don't need to wear a suit to work if you were offered a position. Some people enjoy a more casual environment, but it is not for everyone. Your comment of assumed attrition, as to the response on how many positions we are looking to fill, is incorrect. If I may repeat myself - we are looking to fill as many spots as we can. This is a growing department where we just placed this particular role under a new manager - we will continue to fill this role, until we feel it necessary to not fill the role - based on work volume - as was explained in the interview. Career Advancement: In an attempt to be honest and discuss our needs vs. what each individual candidate is looking for - specifically in your case, we do not have the type of career advancement you are looking for. If I may repeat what was discussed in the interview, our career advancement regarding growing into a management role is limited at the moment, because we have limited to no attrition with our management team. Therefore, someone looking to climb the corporate ladder as fast as you expressed is better off looking elsewhere for employment, and that is ok. We are a smaller company and sometimes smaller companies simply don’t have the roles that folks like you are looking for, long term. The last thing we want is to bring someone in and have them become rapidly unhappy, and part ways. We like to be upfront with all candidates to ensure it is the best fit for everyone involved. Regarding your pay expectations: We ask candidates what they are looking to make, so that we may hire folks that are within our pay range as well as what is within industry standard based on their experience level. We have had situations where folks who are highly educated in areas that are not related to our industry are expecting to make a certain wage that doesn’t align with their lack of direct industry experience. So certainly, I agree that you should feel that you should be paid more – in a position that aligns better with your education and long term goals. From what I recall, I did not respond to your wage expectations, I simply took note and moved onto the next question. Your assumption based on us looking for the cheapest person as possible is incorrect. The interview was ended with “we will get through the rest of our candidates and let you know our decision” – because that is how we always end interviews. You were the first person we interviewed, and as most companies run, we have to get through what is often a large candidate pool before offering anyone a position let alone within less than a week's time. Thank you.
