As we are a small company with no HR we basically use recruitment concultants as our HR. All contact with candidates is done via the recruitment agency. If the recruitment agency does not get back to an unsuccessful candidate then I would have way of knowing as assume they communicate the news.
I agree that it is the height of ignorance not to replay to interviewee with an answer.
In fairness, I think they have to act like that.Quote:

No, because this is AIB so they don't have inquiries, they simply have a little chat before they all gather round to help lift the carpet, under which the matter will be swept.Quote:

Recruitment consultants can be idiots.
A friend of mine was home from England recently, I was telling her about how I was trying to fill a vacancy on my team. She mentioned it to her cousin who subsequently told a friend of hers.
I know people keep saying Dublin's a small place but it turned out my friend's cousin's friend's CV had already been sent to me by the consultants we were using and I had it on hold just in case none of the first few interviewees were suitable.
In the meantime the consultant had told her the vacancy was filled when it was still very much open!
Recruitment agencies can be total @rseholes. A place i was temping for, I had a genuine query about a timesheet issue, and they just slammed down the phone on me. Also during quiet temping periods, I ring them up just to see whats in the pipeline (have the pay the rent you know, cant just sit around and wait for them to ring...) and just get a very blunt answer. Dont know why i bother...
Amazing, because any genuine Rovers fan who was there then and still goes will tell you their :D crowds fell in their final season of the Four In A Row.Quote:

I used to work in AIB, I don't really understand whats wrong??? Its the individual, and not nessecarily the bank itself???
The Galway Clampers are not liked in the city to say the very least!They once refused to open a clamp when a person had to be taken to hospital urgently....only for a Guard paid the fine himself they wouldn't have opened it!:eek:
Recruitment consultants..the power they have to get you a job if you need one must go to their head as the only explanation..
And people who work at Dell in Bray and Limerick and abroad. My job was to do the collect and return on them and they are utter utter @rseholes and when I tried to speak to the customer, they would think I was one of them and get their gruff..:mad: :mad:
