Adidas

[Jam Rock]

So I applied for an Account Managers job at adidas group last night at 5.30 ish, got an email this morning at 10ish to say i have been not been successful! I was a bit shocked as i have never had a "no" so fast! so I rang up to find out what it was (skillsets) that they felt i lacked (as this would be a good self development exercise), and to express my shock at how quickly they had decided against me (normally i get 1st interviews quite easily, and I have been an account manager in one way or the other for the last 7 years! so i have the experience)........but nothing unfortunately, they don't give feed back!

how in hell's name is a person supposed to know which areas they need to work on if they dont even get any feedback? i do not have a problem with not getting picked for an interview (even!), i just don't know how you can decide so quickly that someone is unsuitable without having ever spoken or seen the person behind the CV in real life.

Always mystifies me how some employers can be so dismissive based on experience on your CV.

A good account manager is a good account manager - in much the same way that a good sales rep. is a good rep. no matter what the product.

Exactly mate!
