      Event Manager - Industry and Activation Interview

      11 Jun 2025
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Glasgow, Scotland
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Glasgow Life (Glasgow, Scotland) in Apr 2025

      Interview

      The online application questions are repetitive and do not change from post to post. As someone who regularly interviews, I think these questions don't allow an opportunity for Glasgow Life to learn as much as they could about candidates pre interview. For the interview, I was required to produce a presentation and send it on in advance. I did so and received an out of office response over the holiday weekend (which was no problem at all) however, I then received a late night follow up, where my name was wrong in the response. This didn't leave a good impression regarding attention to detail or with regards to company culture. On the day of the interview the panel seemed unenthusiastic and a little bored during my presentation. I was nervous and knew I was not performing at my best, I asked on several occasions if I could offer more clarity in my answers and if I was meeting all of the points they were looking for - as I was sure I wasn't. I received good feedback and assurances on this throughout the interview and no follow up/ probing questions. I was not offered the job, which I was anticipating - it certainly wasn't a great performance from me. The email to let me know this gave a name of someone that was not on the interview panel and no contact details for follow up. I reached out and received feedback that wasn't very constructive 'You hit a lot of the touch points we'd expect to see in the presentation, but in the presentation, it didn't come alive.' Ultimately I agree with the decision that I should not have been offered the job but regardless of my poor performance, I feel the whole process was poor. The interviewers on the whole seemed bored and uninterested and struggled to answer a few of my questions about the team culture, struggles and what they were doing to support the team.
