Got informed today I was unsuccessful.
I’m more cheesed off that they said I needed more time to develop in the company but couldn’t actually give me anything specific.
I also know that the hiring manager (who got promoted to ultimate boss mid way through the process) referred a candidate, so potentially a case of hiring his mate.
He said they wanted to recruit outside the UK and diversify and that I “wasn’t to know” even though the job was clearly advertised in all countries, which seems illegal and discriminatory
It’s the first time I’ve ever been unsuccessful internally so I don’t think I’ll be hanging around to find out what the new team looks like. Seeing someone in the role will just grate on me.
To the internet and job searching!
I call BS.
Again a case of who you know not what you know.
