Acudí a una entrevista en Barracudas Activity Day Camps
Entrevista
I applied online and filled out all the online details. I received an email form letter which included: "We really liked your application and we will be in touch shortly to schedule a telephone interview!"
I received an email that informed me that a phone interview was scheduled for me with Mrs. X on July X, mid-morning. I am currently working in a school (which they would have know from my application) so mid-morning during term time just isn't possible.
I called them back the same day as I received the email. The woman who answered the phone explained that Mrs. X would need to reschedule it for me but she was away from her desk. She took my details and instructed me to wait for Mrs. X's call. I waited and waited....
The day of the originally scheduled interview came and passed, still no call.
Two weeks later I received an email with the subject 'Telephone Interview Response' and it included the text: "Thank you for taking the time to speak to us regarding your application to work with Barracudas" and then proceeded to inform me that I was unsuccessful in my application.
As they couldn't be bothered to re-schedule the interview or to actually interview me before declining my application, I can't say that I'm particularly bothered not to get the job.
Either their back office processes are inefficient and inept or I can only assume that they judged my application on my age, name or some other characteristic which isn't skills based as I have the childcare requirements, I'm enhanced DBS cleared, first aid certified and with previous summer camp experience.
In the meantime I received two other offers from summer camps who could be bothered to interview me.
