I applied for the Marketing Campaign Manager job by sending my CV. First, I had a phone chat with someone from talent acquisition. Then, I had a Teams call interview with the hiring manager and another person from the Marketing team. The interview felt good, they were nice and gave me lots of info. They said I'd hear back about the outcome in a few days. After about two weeks, I emailed them to ask for some feedback, but I never got a reply. This is the second time this has happened with The Very Group, not getting feedback after an interview.

The interview itself was very well conducted and the 2 guys on the panel were excellent and I thought the whole process was professional and well planned. Having come out feeling that I couldn't have done any better, I have no words for the follow up and feedback. After hearing nothing for 4 weeks and having other interviews in progress, I emailed them. 3 days later a reply to say I was overqualified and apologies for the silence!!

We'll start with a telephone interview to shortlist candidates, then you'll have an interview with the hiring manager, followed by another interview focusing on your personality and how well you'd fit with the company. The interviewers were friendly and knowledgeable.

Behavioral Presentation

First, you'll have a casual chat with someone from our TA Team. Next up, there's a 30-45 minute video call with the hiring team to go over your skills and experience. This is a good chance for you to learn more about the job and ask anything you're wondering about. Finally, a more formal interview where you'll probably get a task to prep and then present to the team.
