I received a phone interview this afternoon from a recruitment agency. It might have gone like all the rest, but for one thing.
I had to apply for the job, because the wording of the ad copy in the Jobsite ad was so sloppy.
Four typos, including one mismatch of a verb to its subject, spelling errors, missing words in sentences ... the ad was excruciatingly poor. And yet it described the employer as "prestigious."
The interviewer had not really attended anything resembling a management course. She did not know much about Belbin role analysis, SWOT analysis, PEST, or pretty much of anything, come to that. (Not even MBA material, then?)
You would imagine someone working for a "prestigious" firm specialising in recruiting (genius level) IT graduates and matching them to IT jobs with going rates from £25,000 - £50,000 p.a. would be somewhat more, how you say, on the ball, n'est-ce pas?
Pardon my French.
