Interview
Upon applying for the job posting, I had a productive conversation with the department manager, who provided insights on what to emphasize during the application process. However, I noticed that the guidance received did not align with the requirements outlined in the job posting.
Additionally, during the interview conducted by the office manager, I encountered some questions that raised ethical concerns. Specifically, I was asked about my current work, including competitive insights into the contract between me and the customers I currently serve. I believe such inquiries go beyond professional boundaries and may not be aligned with ethical interviewing practices.
