Application
I applied online. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Frasers Group (Manchester, England) in Aug 2023
Interview
Quite frankly the most unprofessional experience I’ve ever had. From initial apply to end process, really sums up how this company is ran - lucky escape! Initially applied on LinkedIn, provided my CV and all up to date expectations around salary etc. Received an email asking for the exact same information I had already provided another 2 times e,d salary expectations etc. Then had a “values” call where I spent 25 minutes on a call with recruitment repeating the exact same information i.e salary expectations .. again and a very brief discussion around the company. The next week had an interview with the hiring manager, which went well and then a task based interview was to follow the suit. I had a call 15 minutes after the hiring manager interview to say they were really impressed and could I do the task interview 3 working days later this is due to them wanting to complete the interview stage ASAP which meant I didn’t get the usual given time of at least a week to prepare such a task. However I was keen to proceed so I continued no problem. Interview lasted an hour and had another colleague in also, following that I was told I would hear back by the Monday (3 working days later) …. 2 and half weeks later they called to say I was unsuccessful for that role however they really liked me and thought I’d be a great fit for the team for another role (which I was also interested in). I expressed my concerns with the salary however recruitment mentioned there definitely could be scope to match my expectations and they would take that away and be back in contact. 2 chases later I had an email back saying they hadn’t forgotten about me and were just waiting for director sign off, looks like the director might have quit or taken a 6 year sabbatical at this point as after a final chase they still have not had the decency to give any form of update good or bad. To top it off I have seen the original role re advertised this morning. Good luck for any poor soul who goes through this waste of time process & joins this toxicity!! Avoid avoid avoid
