Is it now normal practice not to receive a response after interview?

Karen

Is it normal practice now to not receive a response from a face to face interview if you are unsuccessful?  I recently qualified in Level 3 and trying to get into HR.  I feel that this is rude and unprofessional that I have attended two interviews without having any response especially as these are for HR positions.

  • I am sorry to hear you didn't receive any feedback after two face-to-face interviews, that is very poor.

    It is always good practice to offer feedback after any interview stage. At application stage, this can be more difficult given the volume you can receive, but if there are exceptional circumstances, then you may want to provide feedback. Nonetheless, I always offer feedback to any candidate that reaches interview stage for various reasons (e.g. gratitude and courtesy, employer branding, encouraging growth and improvement).

    Having a fair shortlisting process can help prevent discrimination claims by having clear evidence of who wasn't selected and for what reasons (i.e. missing job requirement or criteria).
