Interview questions [1]
Question 1
How do you handle stressful situations or multiple priorities?
I applied through a recruiter. The process took 2 months. I interviewed at Jones Day (London, England) in Jul 2022
Interview
No feedback was given to myself or the recruiter after being told they wanted to hire someone ASAP and practically bullied me into coming in for an interview. No follow up at all, all communication ignored! Glad it didn’t go further after that experience

Question 1
Are you happy to work outside the hours stated in your contract on a frequent basis
I applied online. The process took 4 days. I interviewed at Jones Day in Mar 2022
Interview
The hiring manager reached out to me via email and offered to schedule a time to talk about the position. I accepted and we set up a time. That time came and went and I received no phone call. I called and left a voicemail asking what happened and wanted to set up a new time to talk. She emailed and apologized and we set up a new time. That time came and went and I received no phone call. I withdrew my application, as I will not be working for a company that has so little respect for its applicants.
