My niece went over to Dublin for an interview for a fairly senior job with an organisation which shall remain nameless.
She returned home to England and in the fullness of time had a letter to say that she was not successful and gave her a phone number to ring if she wanted feedback on why.
She rang, of course, and during the conversation was told that her interview was the best as was the presentation that she made, but that her application form was poor. (My italics) She was then asked if she would be interested in a similar post based in Cork and on saying yes was told that they would send the appropriate details.
I should point out that she neglected to say that she is of Irish descent and that her partner's uncle is a Minister in the present government (not that this would have made any difference I'm sure).
I would welcome any comments or guidance that I could pass on to the dear girl.
