I applied through a recruiter. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Veolia in May 2008
Interview
After the phone interview, the recruiter followed up with me to say the hiring manager said my background was too specialized. However, he picked out something from a long time ago in my experience, and told the recruiter that I wasn't qualified. But, my background as a generalist was more comprehensive than the job requirements in the posting. I felt like the hiring manager was trying to find ways to disqualify me.

Question 1
What don't you like about where you live now that would make you want to relocate for this position?
I have never had such a bad experience interviewing as Veolia. This interviewer does not respect candidates. They really mind if you have changed jobs in the past 10 years, and I spent over an hour explaining.
Also, no one will be an exact match to their job description but they pick every word on your CV. People change jobs, and work in certain functions that may not be a 100% match to the job description.
Seems like they don't listen to candidates. I had an awful feeling after the interview.

Self-Introduction. Why do you left the previous company? Do you know the job requirement?
Received an email to set up video interview. At end of video interview was to to expect to be contacted to set up next interview. I received a text to do so but never received a confirmation after a couple follow ups via text and email.
