Oxford Instruments interview questions

Unlike any other From online application to offer of an interview took a staggering almost 8 weeks! As it had taken so long i could not remember the vacancy, no longer had any record of it and it had been removed from their website. I emailed back and politely asked if they could send me the details to which the reply was the hiring manager will get in touch. No email was received so i emailed them, all i got was an automated reply that my contact at the company had left. I phoned the company, explained and they kindly gave me the hiring managers direct email and was duly contacted. Unfortunately no reply was received for another 2 weeks and then it was another deputy who told me that they had hired internally anyway. This is a prime example of the shambolic situation that is ever more present when dealing with companies these days, but to be honest this was the crowning *turd in the water pipe. Utter shambolic mis management and bungling lazy administration! Would it have killed them to put an automated out of office reply on their emails rather than having to put a considerable amount of effort into chasing their sheer laziness. What can we take from this. Your personnel department are often the first point of contact and based on this i would never touch your so called company again. Your website makes everything "glow" look at us we are innovators and world leaders in our technology. Well if your admin staff are anything to go on i doubt you could wire up a domestic plug!
