Ho presentato la mia candidatura online. La procedura ha richiesto una settimana. Ho sostenuto un colloquio presso Raleigh Cycle (Eastwood, East Midlands, England)
Colloquio
Initially Raleigh interviewed for the position of '1st Line Support/Network Admin' direct themselves (no agency), with salary being negotiable. After attending the interview and being informed I 'ticked all the boxes', and the interview going well overall I felt, I was asked my salary exceptions so I thought £30-35K was reasonable. However I was later ignored by Raleigh about the interview outcome, and received no further updates from them.
I've recently discovered that Raleigh have now re-advertised the same position, this time with a recruitment agency. They have also now put a salary guideline with the job advert of £24-25K. After finding more about the role during the interview, this is very low pay considering the role requires infrastructure knowledge/skills, and although part of the role would be 1st line support, its far from the fact you would only need 1st line-level skills.
To reflect the role more accurately, in my opinion, it is basically being the entire sites IT, effectively a IT System Administrator position.
I just wanted to share my experience somewhere, that shows a damning example of how a business thinks that by advertising a role as 1st line support they can pay such a low salary but expect you to do considerably more and have the skills to back it up as well.
