“Review of Graduate Recruitment Bureau ”

Written on: 15/09/2011

The service and level of professionalism I received during my dealings with 'GRB' was below substandard. They do seem to have a reasonable amount of jobs advertised on their website the problems for me started after I had applied. Receiving a call I was invited to an interview at their offices. The interviewer (who will remain nameless) was brash and unprofessional in the way that they conducted not only themselves, but the meeting as a whole. This was even to the point of talking to me in a way which seemed only intended to wound without any constructive or inquisitive elements. They did not listen to what I was saying or take on board any points I made, instead attempting to force ideas on me about my own personality and what 'dreams' I had, an aspect which I found particularly peculiar considering this was 3 minutes into the interview. The interviewer belittled me, even ridiculing at times, about my experience and achievements to date. I found this very unnecessary because after all, they had my complete CV and cover letter before inviting me to interview.

Personally because of this experience I would never apply through 'GRB' again as it proved to be a complete waste of my time and money, an experience from which I can take away very few positives. I would never recommend them to anyone I considered a friend, or anyone at all for that matter. All in all, this was a thoroughly disappointing service.
