Overall Negative Experience

Interviewed and No Offer

Interviewed Sep 2008 in Singapore (Singapore) (took 3 weeks)

To begin, the HR department at this company was unable to communicate the needs of the position clearly with the recruiter! As a result, I had a very embarrassing situation of facing the hiring manager who was very nice about the miscommunication and expressed his frustration with the HR department. The hiring manager wanted a person who is able to sell services and not products. I was not keen in selling services at all. Had I known, I would not have applied for the position. It was weeks of preparation down the drain.

I am very unimpressed with an organisation that does not communicate well between departments.

Received and Accepted Offer

Interviewed Jan 2008 in Singapore (Singapore) (took 5 days)

initial communication and coordination was good and efficient.

There was only 1 round for me (adminstrator position) but for senior positions, there are at least 2 rounds, one with HR and department manager and another with senior management.

punctuality and accountability is a must. You have to demonstrate leadership abilities and teamwork, trust me,I know what I am talking about.
