I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at TeacherActive (London, England) in Sep 2020
Interview
CV was screened by talent team, video interview with branch manager, and telephone interview with director of company. Had to regular report back to recruiter about my feedback and had to answer questions as to why I would fit with this dynamic team. What makes you different? Had to conduct research into people who were interviewing me on LinkedIn to see what they were doing and how they got to where they are.

I applied online. I interviewed at TeacherActive (Leeds, South East England, England)
Interview
They arranged a telephone interview and decided to just not show up. Even after rescheduling still didn't show up with no email to say why. So unprofessional. Not to mention spelling my name wrong on the initial email.

I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at TeacherActive
Interview
I have the same experience that a previous candidate had. They just don’t even bother and unprofessional. Applied online for the position of Recruitment Consultant and then my CV gets shortlisted. Next I have a telephone interview, which was short and simple, got told I would hear by the end of the week and that my CV will be passed onto the hiring manager. Finally get an email to say, your CV has not been shortlisted and can't give feedback. Lack of communication and it is messy.
