      Procurement Associate Interview

      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. I interviewed at UNOPS (Kyiv, Kyiv) in Apr 2017

      Interview

      Generally, very nice interview. But with few "buts" which have started even before interview has begun: - annoying repeated comments on my accessorieses (this is how my interview's started and was finished) - my experience was doubted without any grounds (just to show sence if humour? ...I 'm still confused and don't know why I was pushed back in rather sarcastic and full of doubt way when speaking of my previous job and role) - I guess this was the only "red flag" that was taped, other situations happened when recorder was off. - some rather sexist comments (more or less acceptable local jokes, but that was the last speech I expected to hear in the office) So, interview was interesting. I really enjoyed it. But attitude (though rather supportive and friendly) distressed me, and this definitely influenced my performance. If after first one or two strange situations/questions I thought that could be simply a stress part of interview, and thus I felt comfortable, later I understood that smth was going wrong there. Well, I enjoyed the process and consider it useful. But leaving the office (maybe even earlier) I had doubts if I really would like to hear from them again. Unfortunately.
