      Project Manager Interview

      3 Apr 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied through a staffing agency. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Impellam Group (London, England) in Feb 2016

      Interview

      3 interview stage process, a complete waste of time. Feedback was that I was perfect for the job but feared I would book holidays when projects got difficult as that is what I had done in the past. This angered me slightly as I have never booked holidays on projects that have got difficult. If I had every been on holiday during a go-live (for my birthday) where a project had been delayed I had even gone so far as to log on whilst on holiday and travel to local offices if required. This feedback I took offensively as I have always been that person that goes above and beyond on all my projects. Also they interviewed a contractor (myself) for a perm role and then said they were concerned (1 month later) that as a contractor i would have trouble adapting to the life of a perm member of staff, i.e. what would stop a contractor from getting up and leaving, a question I think the panel should have considered before asking an applicant to get involved in the interview process. Again a comment which is fair enough but why even consider contractors in the mix for the application if that is going to be a fear. My general impression from the interview process was that the project role Impellam were looking to fill had a lot of issues, there was a lot of fear and a lot of politics. During the 3rd interview I asked a question re the main concerns on the project and was told that I would have to sign an NDA to get an answer to that question. The selection committee sounded nice enough, I am glad it ended the way it did as the offer I did get in the end from a different company is pretty impressive. My advise to Impellam - consider your applicants time when interviewing, provide honest feedback.
