HR meeting was scheduled 2 weeks in advance without giving detail about the meeting except the name of the recruiter/ interviewer. Interviewer was late without apologies and obviously unprepared. She had such a thick accent that made conversation with her very difficult and was lack of awareness of it as well. Wondering why WU sent she to run the interview of this senior international role, she was obviously not up to standard. Overall speaking, it was an ineffective interview, unprofessional and off putting. Suggest WU setting up a feedback system to collect candidates’ opinion for quality control and improvement purposes. Noticing WU has been recruiting this role for quite long time. Might it because of poorly run interviews (?) Perhaps is time to review the APAC recruitment performance.

The interview was more about fit. The interviewers were honest and fair. They didn't dodge any difficult questions but answered them honestly and diplomatically. I got the sense from their answers that they were aware of the market perception of WU being an old company with old way of thinking.

Applied online, and within a week received email for a phone interview with recruiter. Recruiter mentioned that was going to confer with hiring manager and that I sent an email following up because otherwise she forgets. Did not send email because I'm not interested in a company that encourages procrastination from the recruitment phase.
