I applied online. The process took 1 day. I interviewed at Symphony (London, England) in Jan 2019
Interview
I received a phone call from one of the HR guys who had seen my CV. He stated it was one of this best CV's he had seen and was impressed with my experience and skill set.
I was told that I be a good fit for the job and he, would be getting CV across to the hiring manager asap.
When I asked about the job I was told it was replacing another engineer who was leaving the company only after a few months (said it was due to health problems!). This set a few alarm bell’s ringing in my head, so I went on Glassdoor and read the reviews and noticed lots and lots of people saying they were over worked and stressed.
I did not have to worry too much as the next day I received an automated email stating (Sorry no suitable job at Symphony for my skill set). So much for having the best CV they had seen.
I would avoid this company as reviews say “they don’t treat people well and don’t seem to know what they want from new staff”. In other words a Start Up pretending to be a corporation.
A Void these guys.
