I applied online. The process took 3 weeks. I interviewed at Pernod Ricard (London, England) in Nov 2022
Interview
Had an interview scheduled with the internal recruiter, without communication the interview was rescheduled for the next day. Joined the rescheduled call however the recruiter didn't turn up or answer my phone call, 30min later I received an email from the recruiter saying that her internet dropped out. We then rescheduled the interview for a few days later, I joined the call and the same thing happened but this time she said her Teams wasn't working. I gave her the benefit of the doubt and rescheduled the call for the third time, I was on it for 10min and she didn't join or answer my call but sent me an email 15min later asking if I was joining. Eventually I did the interview, progressed to the third and final stage with the SBM and Marketing Director, was told I'd find out the outcome of my application the next day which never happened and my email follow up to HR received no reply.
