Well over a month passed from application to response from TCHC. First discussion with this company was a panel interview with several people. The individual leading the interview was unfriendly and rigid. No pleasantries or polite discussion before asking 5 scripted, lack lustre and redundant questions. Wrap up was awkward and abrupt and equally unfriendly. I don’t believe this was a reflection of me but rather the lead panelist’s obvious lack of interest in the process of interviewing candidates for the role. I have already decided that if they want to continue the process for the role, I will decline. There is no way I’m interested in working for an organization that starts out on the wrong (miserable) foot. Note to senior leadership: MAKE SURE YOUR HIRING MANAGERS ARE ENGAGING AND PROFESSIONAL AT EVERY STAGE OF THE RECRUITMENT PROCESS. THEY ARE THE PROVIDING THE FIRST / ONLY IMPRESSION OF YOUR COMPANY. IT BETTER BE A GOOD ONE.
