San Expiry, bloody awful isn't it. These companies simply cannot handle the volume of interest. HR should hang their heads in shame. Simply not up to the job. It will, of course, continue like this until the supply/demand situation changes. When airlines start chasing us, maybe we too will just ignore them. It is the other way round at the moment & we are stuck with behavior from some of these companies that makes one wonder what they would be like to actually work for ! Some years back, I was a candidate for jet2, got the inside nod that I was hired (although they never told me that). I happened to be at LBA, kept calling HR for the possibility of a quick chat, as I was there and after 6 attempts was put through o some NOrthern chick who kept calling me Duncan (my name is Nigel). i Told her to forget it, enjoyed Bramhope & joined someone else !
