Hi everybody,
Recently, we hired a candidate in our organization (xxxxx) and the date of joining was the very next day. The candidate came the next day but without documents, to which one of the HR Managers at xxxxxx spoke to him very roughly. So, the candidate sent an email which I have copied and pasted below. Please read it completely and tell me whether the manager was correct or the candidate.
Hello (the HR's name),
At the commencement, I would like to show you courtesy for being an incredible HR.
The very next minute I got out of the room after having the telephonic conversation with Mr. Y, the hair-trigger thing I did was, I called my sister and urged her to scan and mail me all my documents for the simple reason that it would save some time, my endurance, and of course, fuel. She did the same without much delay. Please find attached the same.
I would want to candidly say that as a prospective employee, one would look out for an understanding and cooperating HR. I comprehend with Mr. Y that I should have brought my documents along; however, having said that, I would also uninhibitedly say that the verbiage he applied during the telephonic conversation and suggesting that I was making excuses with regards to yesterday's festival which kept me busy was totally unfitting and uncalled for. His belief that "I am not INTERESTED in joining" does not align at all. Nevertheless, I can't convince him otherwise. If he is "DISAPPOINTED" with me, so am I, being the first day of work (even if it is joining formalities first and then the rest of the process would follow) only because of the articulation he used. I don't think hell would have broken loose if I had submitted the documents tomorrow or had mailed them this evening, for, even I have worked in very disciplined organizations and I am sorry to say, I have never seen this kind of approach or language which Mr. Y has adhered to. It was in no way meeting an iota of professional decorum. The approach he took in conveying the message, which he did so discordantly, sounded as if I was asking for a loan from him and he rejected me, when I came with the tremendous excitement of xxxxx's Family and Culture. I will confess that Mr. Y is "One-of-a-kind" HR/Recruiter I have come across. I have always believed that one's altitude of life depends on the attitude one carries and this attitude of Mr. Y is absolutely incomparable. Maybe he should take a leaf out of your book.
