The whole process ends abruptly at 15 min because the Talent Acquisition only care about checklisting its candidate.
Everyone tells me how good the interview experience is, but I felt a different way.
This is a data viz position, without explicitly specificing on Job Description, you basically pigeon holed your candidates for asking someone who can do engineering stuff and back-end development.
Additionally, ignoring your candidates is a awful action. Candidates spend more than a day to prepare for an interview, it only takes recruiters 5 min to tell them if they are accepted or rejected. If you don't like to proceed the process then just tell them they are not qualified, rather than ignoring them. I don't get it why Slalom get a rate of 4/5+ but is this how a 4/5+ company deal things with their candidates? Afeef you need some help, seriously, you are an employee of Slalom just like I am to my company. We are equal here, me come in as an candidate to a job at Slalom, doesn't mean that you are higher than me and can act like a dishonorable person.
I applied online. I interviewed at Slalom (London, England) in May 2022
Interview
Sent application online and interviewer emailed me asking my availability in the week to discuss the job in more detail and I provided a time and date.
I was waiting ten minutes past the scheduled time for the phone call and decided to email asking whether we had an interview today. I received a reply apologising that the wrong time had been written down in their calendar and they would contact me in an hour.
I had researched the job and company , yet was not given any questions regarding this and the interviewer spoke for the most part. I had a problem answering a question and mentioned I was on the Asperger's spectrum.
The interviewer said they had little knowledge about data analysis and when I asked what the next steps would be, replied I would be taken to the next stage and be emailed by the end of the day.
However, I received no email so emailed back asking for some feedback to be told that after consulting with the team I would not be progressed.
