      Legal Counsel Interview

      13 Sept 2022
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a recruiter. The process took 5 days. I interviewed at Countingup (London, England) in Aug 2022

      Interview

      Countingup approached me through Linkedin to discuss the role and set up a screening call with me. During the call, I was asked whether I was a UK-qualified solicitor and when I explained that I was not, I was told that the interview could not continue as this qualification was a "must" for the role. I asked why I was approached knowing that I was not qualified in the UK. Apparently, some candidates did not include this information on their Linkedin profiles, therefore they wanted to ask about it during the interview. However, they could have checked this with me ahead of setting up an interview. This interview wasted my time as I prepared for it quite a lot however, I didn't get the chance of having the full interview. Since I am still working in a full-time job and do have deadlines and a lot of meetings, I do not appreciate how this workplace wasted my time.

      Dear Candidate We were saddened to hear that you did not have a great experience with Countingup. We work hard to give all candidates a good impression of Countingup wherever they are in the recruitment process. We always arrange a short screening call with candidates to ensure they have the right level of experience for the role - we know how precious time is! We send the job description ahead of the screening call so candidates know what we're looking for because we know sometimes not everything can be listed on a Linkedin profile. It looks like on this occasion you didn't have the right experience and we're sorry you feel like we wasted your time, we keep our screening calls short for this purpose. We love speaking to candidates, because whilst you might not be the right fit for one specific role, our team is always growing so you could be a great fit for the future. We always welcome feedback, so thank you for taking the time to share this with us. The Countingup Team
