Pros

❌ Poor communication – updates were rare, and I often had to chase for feedback. ❌ Lack of transparency around job opportunities and processes. ❌ Promised follow-ups didn’t materialise, leaving me uncertain about application progress. ❌ Felt more like a number in their system rather than receiving personalised suppo

Cons

❌ Minimal feedback on applications and interviews ❌ Unreliable follow-up; candidates often left waiting for updates ❌ Focus seemed more on filling quotas than supporting candidates
