Very strange experience. The interview was done via Zoom with two women. From the start, they seemed to be doing everything they could to turn me off of the job.
One of them stated that I would likely not be able to drive to see families like the job requires, as Cheshire is a big county. This is despite the fact that I recently moved across the country, driving the entire way.
Both women spent a large chunk of time complaining about their low pay, which was incredibly uncomfortable to listen to. Shouldn't they be discussing this with their bosses? I don't control their compensation.
Finally, they got around to asking me about myself. They asked me to name a weakness. I did what any sensible person would do and named a weakness that would not play a part in the job. One of the women became upset, claiming that the fact that I picked a weakness that didn't have anything to do with the job proved that I didn't understand the purpose of their organization. Even though the women spent more time complaining about their low pay than they did talking about the organization, I do understand the purpose of MFS (did research beforehand). I also have some idea of how to conduct myself in a job interview (apparently a foreign concept at MFS) and wasn't going to dig up a weakness that could affect my ability to do that job (especially after those two lovely ladies spent the first half of the interview telling me about how this job is not right for me. Still not sure why they interviewed me if this was the case).
I see that months later, they are still looking for Children's Case Managers. Are they having trouble finding people to hire, or is their turnover rate incredibly high?
