Sorry to hear there was a delay in getting back to you. It is never our intention to delay the process unnecessarily, however it is important that we have time to consider all candidates thoroughly before making any offers so that we can make the right decisions for the role and the wider business. In some instances this does mean that it can take a few days before we are able to confirm our decision. However, I do hope timescales were communicated to you along the way, if not I sincerely apologise. At Portland we commit to a thorough recruitment process often involving a combination of interviews, assessments, or tasks, (role dependent) over a number of occasions. We find that this ensures all candidates have the opportunity to learn about the role and our business in detail, prior to any decision from either party, on whether to pursue the opportunity. I’m pleased to see your comments regarding a nice environment and friendly staff, that’s great to see it being acknowledged. We wish you luck with your future endeavours Kind Regards Vicky Kenyon HR Manager
