I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Metomic (London, England) in Feb 2023
Interview
Started with a 30 min phone call with recruiter, discussing more about the role and the company. Overall seemed positive but after passing on my CV, the hiring manager decided not to proceed, which I respect the decision. However, when following up with a simple question of why or what was missing from my application, they simply choose to ignore you, despite taking the time out to prepare. It's not difficult to write a quick email to say why...
Thank you for your feedback. During March we went through a period of change where we were in between People & Talent resource. This unfortunately led to a backlog of feedback, compounded by a huge response to our role, which may explain our lack of response in this case.
We've rectified this with two new hires in People & Talent and an improved hiring workflow to ensure we maintain a feedback cycle with all those we interview. During times where application volume is high we may not always be able to seek detailed feedback but we'll improve on this where we can.
We appreciate all feedback and we hope this doesn't deter you from applying again in the future.
