Anyone who applied to Hasbro hear back from them?

Harry Palmr · 28-05-2015 10:46am

Not yet no (well I've not heard anything!).

Haven't heard anything back either!

Think hasbro filled positions already

griffy93 · 29-05-2015 6:17pm

A friend of mine got a call and an interview from Hasbro on Tuesday, got the job yesterday. I applied well before her but got no call. She was one of the last to apply I'd say too. They could have gone through who they wanted already.

I worked in Hasbro for a while and I know people working in there now. I can assure you that people getting jobs in there is not through having relatives in there.

I'm just pissed off that I had to go looking for an answer, how hard is it to send out a circular to the unsuccessful

At this day and age its too easy for them too reply in many different forms, Even a text or an e-mail with do, its just unprofessional to not inform people

After the interview stage i would agree that is somewhat ignorant to have to chase for an answer.

But with the amount of people applying for single jobs these days it's too time consuming to reply to everyone.

Isn't this why Bill invented mail merge???

deisemum · 03-06-2015 3:01pm

It's very unprofessional not to acknowledge or let candidates know they weren't successful. No excuse when they can send an email or even put an advert in the local newspapers like some companies do.

Seriously? With an attitude like that you would never get a call for interview.

And what makes you think that people get jobs through relations or other staff like what you said about Hasbro?

Waterford is most definitely a WHO you know not WHAT you know county. Wish they would teach you how to network with the right people in school. Would have saved me 6 plus years in college, unnecessary debt and stress over exams to be only offered jobs that don't pay and zero prospects!!!!!

But how would they fit that in around dead languages and religious indoctrination classes?

don't blame the lad, hard to be positive when you don't even get acknowledgement from companies time after time.

it is widely known that places like Hasbro hire through relations/friends etc(not only this way obviously). I have 5 friends that got jobs there because of each other. anyone who says it don't happen is lying to themselves.

I just wish my bad luck ends some day and I get a good job but it's just so hard to be positive when u know its a case where it's you against Mary's neice or nephew ( not always the case)

I had a Interview for a local electronics company and it was a crap interview the guy really put me off by talking about sport too much and really not giving a ****. They went for someone with experience.

I had an interview for eishtec through Hartley people and didn't get past the first stage. Maybe I was too educated or not good looking enough lol.

That's life I suppose

Shutch1989 · 07-06-2015 2:16pm

PTH2009 I am new to Boards, can you send me a quick pm. I know exactly how you feel.

My husband was the same one dump to another but then he got a job in Bausch and Lomb and loves it. Tell him to keep looking

JourneyMan8 · 09-06-2015 2:18am

I'v wondered lately why all companies/factories/pubs/shops whatever don't advertise here on boards they have a position open... at least then everybody would know where to look to find all jobs available as of right now. its free, takes two seconds. get more views than in your shop window.

Harry Palmr · 09-06-2015 12:35pm

On the face of it, it would be a good idea .

In fairness you can't say at least everybody would know, because not everybody who's looking for work is a member of boards.ie

Sure there's a lot of companies that just advertise on their own websites its most definitely an employers market.

Ericaa · 09-06-2015 3:14pm

There's a CE scheme position that's opened up in Cill Barra in Ballybeg.
They're looking for a fitness/gym assistant with at least a FETAC level 4/5 in fitness studies/gym instruction.

Closing date is June 18th.

Here's their Facebook post about it. https://www.facebook.com/cillbarragym/posts/455565124611594

but when someone is looking for a job, there is not one designated place they can go to see everything that's available. the jobs websites aren't great.

the most annoying thing is when a place advertises on their own website, you'd get more views and word of mouth sharing from somewhere like here. look at the views on this thread, 510,000 people.

for example a certain pub advertised on their facebook page a few months back, the page was liked by no more than 200 people, it got 4 likes and shares.

Harry Palmr · 09-06-2015 4:36pm

Word of mouth would tend to spread from here.

waterfordjobs.ie is an annoying site with positions constantly being bumped.

Whatsisname · 09-06-2015 8:43pm

Always found jobs.ie the most frustrating job site, showing the same jobs for 6/7 months in Youghal, Clonmel etc. Even when you search Waterford.

shayp83 · 10-06-2015 11:22pm

Done deal advertise jobs now and its free to post

officejet57 · 17-06-2015 2:55pm

Trish56 · 17-06-2015 3:00pm

Hello everyone,
I've just came to Waterford and desperately need a job. I spent the days in the city centre, giving my CV everywhere but nothing happens. There seems to be lots of non irish and black people here and they seem to be employed! I can work like a kitchen worker, in a cafe, catering or in cleaning, or in a factory...whatever! Nobody call even for an interview. ..so, if you guys have some useful information, don't hesitate to contact me. I feel like a creep...but I really like Ireland!

Please keep this stuff inside your head. The nationality and race of people is irrelevant to your chances of getting a job. In fact if you're white and Irish you should have a better chance of employment no?

I appreciate your advice but all I mean was that there are a lot of foreign people who seem to be employed here and hopefully I will find a good job ASAP. And yes, of course if you are Irish you have a better chance finding a job in Ireland, than in Romania. ..and vice versa.
