After applying online, I received a phone call inviting me to an in-person interview. It went well (or so I thought), and they said they'd get back to me soon with an outcome, but unfortunately I was completely ghosted afterwards. I decided to call the branch a week later to follow up, but the person who interviewed me was unavailable. The person on the phone said they'd pass on a message and get them to call me back, but they never did. I also asked for an email to try them on, and was given the generic branch address. I sent an email thanking them for inviting me in and to ask if there was an update, but heard nothing. I didn't get an automated response from the Howdens careers site, either. Three months later, it still says 'Your application is being processed.'

Very easy process and good information regarding what the job involves. Quick response time following application and interview. Successful in getting the job and all the information was sent across quickly
