I applied for a position on Reed.co.uk, and within a few days I had a call back from a lady asking about my CV, previous experience and my goals for the future. She was very nice and professional over the phone. The conversation only lasted a few minutes, however I got invited to an interview for the following week.
Shortly after the phone call, I received an email regarding the interview date and time, asking me to confirm. Once I sent my confirmation email, she responded promptly with a preparation list and all the information I would need for the interview.
On arrival at the building, the security had my name already on file, they gave me a security pass which I was asked to wear and advised to go to the given floor. Once arriving on the floor level, the receptionist asked for my name, marked it off a sheet and advised me to take a seat.
There were two men in my interview, both were very well dressed in fitted suites. Though I was rather nervous, the calm confidence and warm welcome I got from the men was very relaxing. I walked out of the meeting room feeling rather relaxed, confident and was impressed by the professionalism both men portrayed.
Unfortunately a week later I received an email saying my candidacy had not been successful for the position.
The reason why I have felt compelled to write this review, was for the mere reason of how professional every step of the interview process was. I was extremely impressed and inspire to receive the same curtesy in my future endeavours.
