The worst experience I have ever encountered with a company. I read reviews on here prior to my interviews and didnt believe it could happen to me.
I got a response from my initial application about 5 weeks after applying.
I had a first interview remotely which I hugely impressed the director and I was sent an email about 3 weeks after to be invited to another final interview for the role.
I took on these interviews in between attending appointments with my mother who was is being treated in hospital for Cancer and done days of practice and research to prepare.
I had the second interview, which went even better than my first interview with the interviewer saying "wow thats a great answer" to most my responses and even appreciated my additional questions to them. I literally covered everything and was confident in being in contention for this role. I was advised that HR would contact me regardless if successful or not.
Now after this I heard nothing after 2 weeks or so, I sent a message to the original Talent acquisition memeber who offered me the second interview. No response. I was polite as I believed they may of been interviewing still .
I left it another week and contacted the same person and their colleague, no response.
I then thought wow okay I will take my chance and contacted the director personally and apologised for the direct approach. Yet again no response.
I finally contacted all 3 to politely ask for an update on my application.
Ghosted! No response still.
I can't believe they don't have the common courtesy to let people know if successful or not after spending 60+minutes per interview and getting on the final stage.
This is a dream job for many people but it has left a sour taste in my mouth about PlayStation and I believe they need to revamp how their Talent Acquisition team operate as they lack people skills and empathy.
If reading this, be prepared to be Ghosted if not successful, its not just a one off if 20 other people on here have mentioned the same thing.
Shocking from a global company leading their industry.
