      Associate Project Manager Interview

      29 Jan 2021
      Anonymous interview candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Difficult interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at UCL Business (London, England) in Jan 2021

      Interview

      They gave me two working days and weekend to prepare for the interview. They asked me to confirm the interview date they chose before telling me what the interview would entail and sent me the information about what I had to do for the interview the next day. I had an interview with UCL Business for a one year contract associate project manager role. I had to develop a project plan based on information that was provided, I covered project team structure, roles, overview stage plans, budget and timescale using a Gantt chart. I was given 10 minutes and finished the presentation in 9 minutes. And they asked me 17 questions over the next 50 minutes. I did not get the job and asked for feedback. To put it briefly, the feedback stated that my project plan was too detailed and I wasn’t enthusiastic enough in my tone of voice. They also said the lighting was poor where I was (it was day time and I had the light on). They did say that I answered the questions well and was very clear and concise. They also said I did not have experience managing life sciences and biological science projects. In a presumptuous comment said that they thought I was more suited to managing a few number of projects with high involvement as opposed to a large number of projects with low involvement. From that comment, it seemed like my experience on the subject matter should not have been an issue.
