For an organization that boasts about setting high standards, BSI America in the Herndon, VA office does not live up to its own expectations with regards to professionalism during the interview process. I had a phone screen with two recruiters and they set me up for an in person interview with the CFO. This CFO cancelled on me in the last minute three times before I finally stopped replying only to be cancelled over and over again- yes that was 3 times. I understand that someone can be a busy executive but it does not give them the right to be so unprofessional and treat people so poorly. It takes a lot to tell your current employer that you will be out of the office on a specific date and to make such arrangements to meet your interviewers. I had to come up with excuses after excuses to my employer that I have to be out of the office just so that I can meet the very self important CFO. When someone treats you poorly during the interview, you can expect to be treated no different if you were desperate enough to take that position. I certainly dodged a bullet there.

They appear to be timewasters, or do not update their recruitment adverts. They keep reposting this role (over the last 3 months). I've even been headhunted for it by an external recruiter. Yet when I apply, I get a generic rejection in a short space of time indicating no one has actually reviewed the application. I meet the job requirements perfectly both in qualification and experience, so there is something on their end that is unprofessional - either bias or simply not updating their adverts to say the job is no longer accepting applications.
