I recently applied for a position to MNP Digital, and my initial contact was with Mr. Anand from the recruitment team. Despite my efforts to provide thorough and detailed answers in my application and resume, it became apparent that these documents had not been reviewed in advance. This oversight led to numerous unnecessary email exchanges, which predominantly consisted of repetitive questions that had already been addressed in my application materials. Subsequently, a preliminary screening call was arranged. During this call, Mr. Anand requested that I respond in writing to a series of 8 to 9 detailed questions intended for the hiring manager's review. This task, typically a responsibility of the recruiter, was delegated to me. This not only encroached upon my time but also duplicated the effort I had already put into my application. Furthermore, it appeared that Mr. Anand’s primary motivation may have been to fulfill procedural quotas rather than genuinely assess my suitability for the position. After submitting my detailed responses, which I suspect were simply to complete his recruitment metrics, there was a notable lack of follow-up, leading me to question whether my application was ever seriously considered or merely used to meet these internal targets. Unfortunately, this process did not result in any conclusive feedback or progression in my application, leaving me with the impression that my time had been inefficiently used, possibly to meet procedural requirements rather than to genuinely evaluate my fit for the role.
