      Public Relations Interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Teradata (Dayton, OH) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      I saw the position posted on LinkedIn in late September 2015 and applied for it. Within a few days, I received an email from an HR person who wanted to set up a phone interview. We settled on a date and time, and she sent me a confirmation with a conference call phone number and meeting number to enter. However, she stood me up. I was on the phone for 25 minutes waiting for her join and spent the time checking emails and completing a few tasks. I finally gave up and sent her a polite note asking if she'd like to reschedule. She wrote back 50 minutes after the conference was scheduled to start, "I am so sorry. I had a call run over and could not get to a PC." This is a software technology company, and she could not get a PC and did not have access to a smart phone to contact me? She asked about talking the next day, and I gave a time option, asking to end by 4 p.m. (I had appointment then.) Guess what time she time she responded with? 4:30 p.m. I mentioned I couldn't start then, and we finally settled on 3 p.m. The phone conference system disconnected us (and her--mid-sentence) at precisely 3:30 p.m. because that's how long she had allotted for the call. She wrote back apologizing for the cutoff and mentioned another HR person would be in touch with potential next steps in the recruiting process. That person never contacted me, did not respond to my email and did not return my phone call. I did hear from what I assume to be the hiring manager, who wrote, "Right now, we have a few candidates on the west coast that we’re pursuing. While this person could theoretically work from anywhere in the country, our San Diego office would be a primary fit." That's odd, considering the LinkedIn posting clearly said "USOhioDayton." Like many, I use key words to help find job postings, and input location and job titles into the appropriate fields. If Teradata wants candidates from the San Diego area, then it should list San Diego and not Dayton. Teradata needs to get its HR act together. If San Diego is the primary location fit, don't post a position for Dayton, Ohio. Don't schedule an interview and not show up for it. When a candidate says they're available a time ending by 4 p.m., don't schedule an interview to start at 4:30 p.m. Don't tell a candidate an HR person will be in touch, and then they don't get in touch. My time was wasted. Best advice? Teradata searches for new HR leadership.
