      Sr.Specialist Interview

      10 Jul 2023
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Chicago, IL
      Declined offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 5 months. I interviewed at Charles Schwab (Chicago, IL) in Feb 2023

      Interview

      I accepted the offer with the compensation on May 11, 2023, and in the offer it is clearly mentioned as Telecommute. However, I was informed on June 17, 2023 via text message from the Hiring manager, that the policy has changed last week and that I will be required to be in the office for three to four days per week, starting on July 1, 2023. I want to clearly inform you,I accepted this offer with this compensation because the job is fully remote. I am disappointed that this change was not communicated to me till now in a professional way via HR or hiring manager via call or from email. I came to know about the policy change on Friday, June 17, 2023, when I received the laptop and connected with my hiring manager via text message to get to know how to get the password and discuss my first day. He updated me about the policy change in a text message. I also find it unprofessional that I was informed of this change via text message, and that my request to start with two days per week was also denied. That intention clearly states I can’t do anything on my last day of my current employment. It is very unethical in humanity basis to the new joiner is requesting the time to materialize the personal need for one or 2 month even though the issue is not with my side.(offer clearly mentioned as TELECOMMUTE) February 20, 2023: Applied for the Sr. Specialist position on Charles Schwab's careers portal through LinkedIn.

April 17, 2023: Received an update from HR that the team is still working on releasing the offer. April 18, 2023: Sent an email to follow up on the offer. No response. April 19, 2023: Received an update from the hiring manager that there is a recruitment freeze and they are not able to offer me the position at this time. April 19 - Evening Hiring manager called me and updated we have a contract position available for you with the rate of 80 -85 per hour and i negotiated with 110-120 per hour Hiring manager rejected my offer and I finally decided I am done with Charles Schwab April 26, 2023: Received an update from the hiring manager that they are pushing for an exception to hire me and asked if I am still interested. I said that I would need to see the offer first before making a decision. April 28, 2023: Did not receive an offer. Sent an update to the hiring manager again to follow up. May 1, 2023: Sent an email to the hiring manager to inquire about the status of the offer. No response.

June 17, 2023: Received the laptop and accessories from Charles Schwab. June 17, 2023: Connected with the hiring manager to get the password and discuss my first day. During the conversation, he updated me via text message that the policy has recently changed and that I will need to be in the office 3-4 days per week starting July 1st. I requested to start with 2 days per week so that I can settle my personal commitments, but the hiring manager said no and he stated the policy came from SVP level. Jun 18 and Jun 19 2023 – Sleepless night and discussed with my family and finally I decided not to join the company because of the unprofessional and unethical way of the company in the boarding process. June 20 2023 – I am jobless now. I am disappointed with the way that the interview process and on-boarding process was handled.
