      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied through other source. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Oxford Instruments (High Wycombe, England) in Feb 2025

      Interview

      Took time off twice to attend video/phone interviews, never heard from them again after, even after I sent a follow-up email. Disrespectful, inconsiderate and thankfully not the norm. Leaves a bad impression of the company.
