I applied online. I interviewed at TeacherActive (Birmingham, Inglaterra) in Nov 2020
Interview
I received a call following an online application which was somewhat of an informal interview (telephone screening). I was then selected for a 2nd interview with a senior consultant. I received extremely positive feedback and was then selected for a 3rd interview with the branch manager. I waited for nearly 3 weeks for an update and have only received feedback now to say I was not suitable for the role with no constructive feedback or a valid reason why I am not suitable.
Interview questions [1]
Question 1
- If I were to contact your previous manager, what would he/she say your biggest weakness was?
- What is your biggest success?
- What do you think will be the biggest challenge in the first 12 months?
Thank you for your feedback. We always aim for every interview to be thorough, very challenging but overall a positive experience. I'm sorry to hear that you feel this time was not the case.
If you would like to discuss this further, please email feedback@teacheractive.com. In the meantime we wish you all the best with your search for work.
Kind Regards

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.

Question 1
They decided to not show up to the interview even after reschedueling
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.
