RANT i went to a job interview this morning and stood outside freezing my ass of for 45 mins

[nailpolish]

the office shutters were down and obv no one was in

felt like a right twat

cried all the way home and had to tell mum who had taken the day off work for me she had wasted a day off

you get yourself all organised and childcare arranged and then your interviewer doesnt even bother turning up!

argh

wasn't there a number to ring?

What a PITA nailpolish!!

How bloody rude of them too. Doesn't show them in a good light does it?

That's terrible!

You have double checked the time, date and venue haven't you?

Better off not working for that sort of (dis) organisation!!

hope they have a good excuse! Tell them you want refunded for child care and a taxi!

i phoned the sister office and they tried to ring the interviewer, they called me back and said they were sorry they couldnt get in touch with her

(maybe shes had an accident or something?)

they said they will arrange another date, i then lost it slightly and said thats easy for you to say, i have childcare problems etc etc blah blah

Have you heard anymore from them NP?

Unless it was a dream job, I'd consider taht finished.

I mean, they can't be bothered to phone?

Imagine how they treat their customers.

Good Lord,how unprofessional!
What sort of cowboy outfit is this??

not a squeak fimbo

maybe its for the best tho cos im angry

if they phone tomorrow i will have calmed down

woul d i be cutting of nose to spite face tho if i told them to stick it

Have to agree - I work in recruitment and have had drummed into me that it is essential to give the interviewee a good impression of the company - interviews work both ways in that both parties need to decide if the job is appropriate - sounds to me like a shoddy organisation - would step back if I were you.

Surely the sister company must know by now what has happened to her. I don't blame you for being angry.

i agree fimbo

i thought this country was desperate for nurses?

no bloody wonder

Was just about to ask...was it the NHS?

no it wasnt the nhs

I'm agog to hear what the excuse is!

she still hasnt phoned

I am still in that they haven't had the decency to phone you. Unless of course she has gone awol.

the only reason i can think of fimbo is that she was on her way and was involved in an accident on the road or something

?

No, I'd never tell them to stick it, just tell them you're no longer interested/another opportunity has arisen.

it depends what the reason is

i think i would go for another interview tbh

So far, though, they've not given you any reason.

unless shes lying in intensive care and they are all rushing to her beside...
