I applied online. I interviewed at Rethink Mental Illness
Interview
The run up to the interview was a bit disorganised and they forgot which job I was applying for, and it was reinforced just how oversubscribed it was and how they had back to back interviews for the role. The interview itself is lots of questions about your suitability for the role which are ranked as you go, but if you don’t answer quickly enough they move you on. The two hosts were nice enough, but I felt like the set up of the interview itself doesn’t accommodate for genuine interest about the interviewee and their passions for the job, just how well you fit specific criteria. I left feeling a bit disillusioned by the process and was not surprised at all to receive a rejection a week later.

Interview
Poor communications. Get interview invite last minute and they fail to respond to my concerns. Had major surgery around the time of the interview and they refused to move it back more than a few days. There was also a 1h test which I wasn't told about until I asked. Was in pain throughout the interview bc recent surgery and got rejected. Big building but reception was empty and had to call multiple times to get in, despite being told someone would be there to let met in. Also I felt like it was unfair that they expected us to know so much about their partner org when it did not feature as part of the original job description.

Wouldn’t recommend due to amount of work I put in to be given cliche message back about what to do next and how to progress further. Recommend different services and can imagine it would be better
