I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at CAMHS Professionals (Hackney, England) in Mar 2025
Interview
DO NOT BOTHER applied for a job first we had a teams interview and then an in person group interview after the group interview we was told decision were meant to be made today get a call from my recruiter that I got the job but they aren’t actually hiring and that they never checked with their manager to see if the can upload this job in the first place. I’ve heard they’ve done this before so I believe they are just trying to build a data base of applicants. And trying to waste people time
I applied online. The process took 3 months. I interviewed at CAMHS Professionals in Nov 2022
Interview
A little Awkward, interviews were set in a hotel whilst a Jobs fair was taking place. The actual interview took place inside a cleared out hotel room and didn’t really give the comfortable vibe I think they were hoping for. It also took nearly 12 weeks to hear back from them with regards to the interview.
