Description
I received an email from Scott Douglas regarding a job offer. The email noted that the hiring team of The Compass Group Co received and reviewed my resume via CareerBuilder. I was required to contact Bryan Denmark via Microsoft Teams, so I did, because I’ve come across The Compass Group name before given while I’m applying for work on indeed, LinkedIn, etc. I had to confirm the interview code (which was Cpass-1821). The interview took place between Bryan and I (via chat in Teams-written communication only). This interview was regarding data entry/customer service position. Needless to say the beginning of the interview suggested the entire process was going to get “obviously suspicious”. Not only were there spaces between last words and question marks in sentences, but he was telling me about himself using “bad grammar” I don’t 100% understand it. He was using some of that grammar throughout the interview process. At the end of the interview I was offered the job with bad grammar on his end. I eventually asked him “Are you someone else?” when he asked me what bank I used after he told me the pay rate and there were options getting paid via mailbox or direct deposit. He did reply he was whom he said he was (with bad grammar). I called him out on the bad grammar there. He replies back you clearly know it’s a typo. Me in my head: “Really?? How many other typos did you make??” I then told him to give me a call just so I can tell he’s easy to understand. No answer—Gotcha! At least I wished him luck and gave him “One Pinocchio” for his performance.
