I applied online. I interviewed at Lifestory (Winchester, England) in June 2023
Interview
Arrived early only to be told that there had been a misunderstanding and a mix up with the diaries and I wouldn’t be able to be seen at the time that had been offered to me. No comprise offered and no follow up email of apology. Appalling!
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
Not Applicable, as I never got past the lobby to know.
Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review as they are important to us to ensure all of our candidates have the best possible experience. We are sorry that you feel you had a negative experience as we pride ourselves on our recruitment process here at Lifestory.
You applied for the Admin Supervisor role for which we received a high volume of applications. You were shortlisted for the role and were invited to attend an interview and were offered various time slots to choose from for your interview to take place.
Unfortunately by the time you confirmed which interview time slot you would prefer, all of the available time slots had been filled by others and although you were not sent an invite confirming your interview, nor were you told it would not be going ahead for which we have apologised.
On the day when you turned up at our offices we did offer you the opportunity to stay for a short period until the hiring manager was available to interview you or for the interview to be rescheduled but you declined both options.
We are sorry that we didn't live up to your expectations on this occasion and wish you the best in your search for a new role.
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Lifestory
Interview
Informal, at a sales development rather than a central office. The team I met on the day were nice. Interview was with the manager and we went through my experience and they told me more about the company
