      PMO Coordinator Interview

      Feb 5, 2016
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      Londres, Inglaterra
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 1 week. I interviewed at Pearson (Londres, Inglaterra) in Oct 2015

      Interview

      Leading up to the interview was very well structured, a simple phone conversation with HR,and a subsequent screening phone interview with one of the team members; this was for me to get a feel of what the job would entail and for them to gauge my interest. After being invited of an interview, a time was confirmed quickly. On the day, I was quite nervous, my first interview in a couple of years. I was to be speaking with the Finance Supply Change & Procurement PMO Manager and Technology PMO Manager. It was a good cop, bad situation, which didn't prove to be productive. It seemed from the outset the 'bad cop' did not like me, and made comments such as 'I don't understand where your knowledge is at'. Good cop was engaging and seemed genuinely interested to hear of my experience and fully explain the advertised role.
