I applied through a recruiter. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at D R Newitt (Edinburgh, Scotland) in Feb 2026
Interview
I went in for an initial chat and felt the tone was very relaxed and conversational. I was then asked to meet the owner, who was in a meeting at the time. I was told they would call the next day to arrange for me to come back in, but I haven’t heard from them since.
I don’t mind not getting the job; however, I believe it’s common courtesy and respectful to follow up with candidates — even if it’s just to say, “You’re not the right fit for us.” Providing brief feedback would also be helpful so candidates know what they can improve on for similar roles in the future.
