Very poor experience overall. I was transparent about my visa status during the initial recruiter screening and was rejected shortly after. I was then contacted again and told the company wanted to proceed with me on a contract basis instead, and asked if I was still interested. I completed two further rounds, including a final in-person interview in London, and then heard nothing for over a month. After following up, I was told they had gone with someone for a permanent role instead. The process felt disorganised, inconsistent, and disrespectful of candidates’ time. Changing the role structure midway and then failing to communicate any outcome after a final interview reflects poorly on the hiring process.
