Easy Interview – Overall Negative Experience – No – Tue, 18 Jul 2017
Interviewed Jun 2,017
Two phone interviews. Initial screening by HR followed by phone interview by hiring manager. Hiring manager described the position , responsibilities, company background information and asked if I had any questions. A comment the hiring manager made that stands out in my mind as a red flag was "you seem to be overqualified" which is the new buzz phrase used by HR and hiring managers to say "we think you are too old". Strange given that JLL touts itself to be one of the world's most ethical companies and a strong proponent of diversity. Diversity also includes diversity with respect to age. An ethical company would never discriminate against someone due to age.
I was told I would be contacted within two weeks regarding next steps. This did not happen. I attempted to contact HR after not hearing anything by phone (always goes to voicemail and got no follow up to my messages by HR). I then emailed the HR person who initially interviewed me to check on the status of my interview and for any feedback. No response.
Disappointing experience overall.
