I applied direct through Chelsea. Had a screening call with internal TA. Who said they would get back to me by the following Tuesday. I gave benefit of doubt and chased twice after given plenty of time. But ultimately I was ignored. Frustrated that they couldn’t just give me an update or let me know I was unsuccessful. I was very excited about the role and I hit all the criteria and the call was really positive. I appreciate how busy they might be, but when someone has taken the time to apply and speak to someone, a quick email to update or decline - demonstrates that you do live by the Chelsea BLUE values that you advertise - it felt like a disconnect.
