      Engineer Interview

      Jul 14, 2023
      Anonymous Interview Candidate
      London, England
      No offer
      Negative experience
      Easy interview

      Application

      I applied online. The process took 4 weeks. I interviewed at Network Rail (London, England) in May 2023

      Interview

      I was contacted by text message/whatsapp from an employee in the team to schedule an interview. This seemed a bit strange and unprofessional as I had no contact with a recruiter at all throughout the recruitment process. Anyhow, the interview turned out to be led by two nasty bullies who took pleasure in trying to ridicule and laugh at anything I had to say. At many times throughout the interview I was cut off and ridiculed. This erratic behaviour began after being asked where I was from and I presume they didn't like the answer. The joke is on them as I have since received numerous offers for better positions with much higher salaries - all with extremely positive interview feedback. These two individuals are a shameful representation of Network Rail. I suggest that they get briefed on how to conduct themselves in an interview setting and learn how to talk to people with respect. I had no way to make a complaint as I could not find a direct HR contact number! Therefore, I have decided to document my experience here for all to see. P. S. I would suggest allowing more than 30 minutes to carry out an interview and a properly performing sound system. With that being said, for this particular interview 1 minute would have been sufficient.
