I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Brandwatch (London, England) in Dec 2016
Interview
Completely unprofessional interview organisation.
The recruiter at Brandwatch emailed me through Jobvite message board to have an initial telephonic conversation. I had to email him 3 times and then eventually call his office number to set up a time to talk on phone. Since I didn't get a formal acknowledgement regarding the interview timing, I followed this up with an email to confirm the time we agreed.
On the scheduled interview day, the recruiter did not call me until 10 min past telephonic interview time. I eventually called his office number and he then told me that they filled for the position today. If that was the case, the recruiter should have emailed me that they filled the position and cancelled the interview schedule. I had to call up and find out that the interview was cancelled and the role was filled. I cannot understand how Brandwatch can take recruiting for such a senior role so lightly!
Extremely unprofessional and discourteous !!!
