      Administrator/Editor Interview

      19 Jun 2016
      Anonymous interview candidate
      Bath, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Average interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at SelectScience (Bath, England) in Feb 2013

      Interview

      Telephone interview with editorial manager followed by panel interview with the CEO, his wife and a third person. This was a standard panel interview to judge experience in the field.

      Interview questions [1]

      Question 1

      The CEO asked some very probing questions about my home life including if I was in a relationship and where I was living. I basically got the impression that he was trying to suss out whether I was going to have a baby any time soon. I was also asked another personal question which should NEVER be asked at interview even out of curiosity and without ill intent. Unfortunately I can't elaborate further because it may be identifiable. Not a nice feeling to have, left the interview feeling pretty gobsmacked. Even though it was sometime ago I still reflect on how strange it was. Hopefully things have changed since then.
