Viciouskitty74, in my view, I felt that your comments are
uncalled for. To wait up to 3.5 hours reflects insincerity of the
company in their recruitment. Put yourself in their shoes. Your
comments stated “For a HR generalist point of view”,
could have indicated
that you are a HR personnel and if that is true, I doubt your
professionalism and efficiency.
Even if you are not a HR administrator, your comments
reflected that your mentality is immature, irresponsible,
uncaring, inconsiderate and snobbish.
Indeed, the recruiter and the client are in the wrong
to make the candidates wait without any explanation. Not only did
this incident echoed the lapse in the integrity of the bank but too
amplified that the recruitment agency should buckle up on their
customer service standards.
No matter what circumstances the recruitment agency or
the client had encounter on that very day, they could had made
arrangements to inform all affected parties and to be prudent in
making sure that the candidates’ trip to the said interview session
were not a waste of time.
In view of the current global economical situation and
the shortfall of jobs availability, employers should show more
compassion to their potential employees. I believe the term is
Corporate Social Responsibility and every employee is part of the
assets to the company, in another way the human capital or
investments.
By commenting “I would suggest the job agency drop
you. No point helping you anymore. Wasting their time.”
suggested that you have no idea how an individual would felt, going
jobless for months or being retrenched is disastrous to many as
they could be saddled with loans to pay and debts to settle, not to
mention the high living standards that Singapore has
become.
In short, your comments reflected poorly on you as an
individual. I could have imagined that you are a spoilt brat who
has a silver spoon fed by your parents. Maybe I could have been
wrong but the sediments felt by many in the forum as well as the
press reflects the voice of mine I suppose. Viciouskitty74, you
should be ashamed of yourself, maybe your upbringing could be a
problem.
