Received a Phone Interview and an In-Person Interview.
Was told on the phone before 12pm that they would like to invite me for an in-person interview. They promised that they would confirm the schedule and instructions within 30 minutes to 1 hour via email.
Strike One: Did not receive this confirmation email till about 24+ hours later, even though I was told I would receive it within the hour.
Strike Two: Went to the interview, the two individuals that were scheduled to interview me did not do so, because they had a meeting to attend. (You would think that since it took longer to get the confirmation, that the interviewers could at least make it.) Only one individual interviewed me, and she was not prepared to do so. It clearly was a last minute situation to 'pull her in.' With that being said, she could not answer some questions I had about the position, since she wasn't too familiar with what the position entailed.
I sent thank you notes after the interview and asked if one could be forwarded along, since she did not have a business card on her when I asked for one. I received no reply as to whether this thank you letter was even forwarded on to the appropriate individual.
Strike Three: I was told to contact them within the middle of the next week if I did not hear back. I did so, and have not received a reply still. I see that they keep 'reposting' the job listing, but a courtesy reply back saying I did not get the position is the professional thing to do instead of leaving me wondering.
In conclusion, organization, communication, and respect are things that need to be worked on at Vista.
I am not reviewing them poorly based out of spite, but any respectable professional HR department would keep an applicant informed on what is going on if the applicant makes an inquiry when they were told to. Especially if the position was in their very own HR department. I believe that anyone interested in applying for a position should be made aware.
