This was disappointing for me as I had always thought they were a great company.
My story in bulletpoints:
- applied very early
- application was rejected (mistakenly)
- got an interview but no prep
- eventually met the hm (nice guy)
- didn’t get it (told they wanted to hire in Paris)
- they hired two people from my location 😅
- was kindly offered a 2nd opportunity
- got no prep
- met the hm (had no context of who I was)
- didn’t get it
The main sore point was that I felt like I was late to the process and their minds were already made up. It was also disappointing that I received very little prep material from the recruiter, and the second hiring manager didn’t seem to know who I was or what I was interviewing for.

I recently had a very disappointing interview experience. The conversation was rushed, with the recruiter from UK moving abruptly from one question to another without giving space to respond fully. The entire interview lasted barely 20 minutes, with no proper introduction about herself or the role, which set a poor tone right from the start.
Unfortunately, the process felt dismissive and unstructured, as though it was being done just to tick a box during the holiday period. As candidates invest time and preparation, experiences like this leave a negative impression of the company.
I sincerely hope the organization reviews and strengthens its talent acquisition practices to ensure candidates are treated with professionalism and respect. A better candidate experience goes a long way in building a strong employer brand

I was sourced through the recruiter and during the call, the recruiter ask some key screening questions. Through the screening questions, the recruiter said you didn’t answer the questions and you should used the STAR approach. The recruiter should be more specific if they were looking for some answer & said clearly it is not a fit. This role has been open for the longest time in Singapore. I guess we know why

The interview process for this type of role is very long and unneccasery, 7-8 rounds meeting various employees and each time you have to explain your Experience again which can be frustrating as seems lack of communication across process. Too long to be taking up candidates time and could be made shorter.
