Difficult Interview
Application

I applied online. I interviewed at Screwfix (London, England) in Aug 2023

Interview

It wasn't excellent, but unfortunately, they didn't accept me because I didn't meet the requirements that they looked for, and they decided not to proceed with my application (despite telling them that I wanted to have more experience at hardware and I was willing to learn more)

Anonymous Interview Candidate in Yeovil, England

Positive Experience
Average Interview
Application

I applied in-person. The process took 5 weeks. I interviewed at Screwfix (Yeovil, England) in Apr 2023

Interview

The overall experience was good everyone was friendly, and the tone of the interviews was conversational and casual. The entire process was over a month, there were two different interviews first one with a marketing Manager and a team member and the second one with the team e-commerce Manager. The head of Recruitment was in contact throughout the entire process being friendly, supportive and offering feedback. I wish the process was faster as it took quite a long time to receive an outcome and I also noticed from the 2 interviews that there are different expectations for someone in this position that didn't necessarily align.

Do you experience that how long the hiring process would take at Thermo Fisher? I got my second interview with hiring manager at the beginning of November but I haven’t heard nothing from them. When I’ve emailed them to check in they just said that the process would be slow, no time frame. I would be able to get an offer soon from other company but work as contractor. Should I wait for Thermo Fisher?

Booz Allen Hamilton Recently applied and I've been referred for an interview! Any tips on interviewing with Booz Allen? And if I am being asked to complete clearance and background upfront, is this a good indicator for being hired?

Applied for a job a few weeks back, got a call from HR yesterday morning about an interview next week. She mentioned she'd shoot me an email with all the interview details, but so far, my inbox is empty. Assuming I'll hear from her early next week, is it normal for them to expect me to show up for an in-person interview on short notice, like couple days?
