Novartis won't give a chance to candidates that were previously employed here

My experience with the Novartis Recruiter was horrible, very unprofessional. Just stopped returning calls and email one day. How hard is it to say they selected another candidate or even a form letter within two months?

They need to drag out the ruse for a week or so and make it appear as though you were actually "considered". Ex-employees, in general, realize who are the internal AHoles, and are simply too dangerous and potentially disruptive to the new status quo. They no longer fit in the Kool Aide cue. Too much giggling and vomiting. It's called transparency in hiring :))))))))
 




It's interesting to find out that previous employees from Novartis won't even get a stab at interviewing.

Back when the big layoffs occurred we were told that if you were laid off you still had a fair chance to return (which the severance package advised you would be eligible to come back in 2 years)

Fast forward to today, letters have already been received that managers and reps that did very well in their tenure aren't even going to get an interview. How does this stuff happen. Why even offer it as an opportunity to these guys that they lay off.

I think the current leadership team are cherry picking people they want that are carbon copies of themselves. What ever happened to diversity and inclusion.

Very disappointing.
 




I am curious as to what ages everyone is that has been denied interviews.
Just wondering if this is an age discrimination issue also?? If you have applied and not been considered or rejected for an interview please respond with your age....I am 55
 












Why in Gods name would you want to come back here? That's like going back to an abusive marriage.... I've spent the last 8 months trying to get out.... I'd never work here again and would encourage others not to also...... I rather shovel horse crap than work here again.....
