A friend had introduced me to an employee of A Piece of Pie. After meeting that employee for an informal conversation over coffee, he referred me to the HR department. I was asked to fill out a questionnaire in advance of the interview. This questionnaire was fairly basic, questions included ''What do you like most about innovation?'' and ''Name a book you would recommend and explain why''. Some of the questions returned during the interview. The interview lasted for well over 90 minutes, with a lot of focus on people skills and what they call ''business anthropology''. In general, the conversation was very pleasant. Very strange: For a company that more or less claims to have a people and empathy focus (quote during the interview: ''To work here, you really have to understand people''), I was fairly surprised to find out that the communication post-interview was virtually non-existent. I received one vague, no rejection but also no definite green light, message. After that, radiosilence. Several emails asking for updates and feedback went unanswered. Later I heard through my friend that they thought that my profile was not 100% what they were looking for. Very unfriendly and even coward behaviour, especially for a company a company that says ''we understand people''.
