NETWORK PLEASE BE CAREFUL WHEN APPLYING OR PUTTING YOURSELF FORWARD TO AMS!!
6 weeks ago I accepted a role with them with a start date of 30th of August for Barclays. For the last 6 weeks, it has been a constant back and forth with them as they have delayed my start date over and over due to "a reference" they kept telling me they were "waiting to hear back from Barclays" 6 WEEKS.
Not only has this put me in financial difficulty, you know being jobless for 6 WEEKS, but I also turned down an amazing offer which I would have started on the 15TH of AUGUST for them. They constantly asked me for hypersensitive information including bank statements; they also sent me a laptop which I didn't receive as they never made me aware they were sending me it.
To my surprise they have now sent me the below email.
Funny how I saw the same job advertised on Linkedin 5 days ago.
Absolutely disgraceful candidate experience and given its cost of living crisis, an abhorrent position to put someone in.
If anyone has any advice or is hiring please do message me as It looks like I have to start from the drawing board and I am not too proud to say I am desperate right now.
I am only sharing this to ensure this doesn't happen to anyone else, Please do not put yourself through the pain I have had to endure.
