Review from Customer Support Dept

What would you improve about your company's interview process?

Interviews Reviews

I am not quite sure what the issue is but it is common for paperwork to go missing or for information to not be put in correctly, delaying your hire. I think this could be helped if there was better communication between the hiring team.

It would be nice if when you went if HR had all the proper information they needed.
