You will be lucky if you here back from them at all.

I went for an interview there and the first thing I was told was that full feedback would be given to all candidates afterwards regardless of whether you are successful or not. Neverheard from them.
Very unprofessional.

I heard back from the last one so I'm hopeful for a response at least.

Folks lets not confuse things please. The topic is about pacificare. They always let you know if you know either way if the applicant is successful or not.

Your unprofessional comment might confuse people into thinking your talking about pacificare.

Speaking of Pacificare, I didn't even make it to the online questionnaire phase before receiving a "Application not being pursued" email, but they did email me each time to tell me(3 job postings so far).

There's the sequence of posts that took this off topic.

The thread is about Pacificare yet the last few post ended up discussing Pramerica

Congrats good news!

Got a call yesterday to say iv'e got an interview their for an IT support role, its my first time to get an interview their.
Was told that It will last 60 mins, starting with questions about how I deal with customers and pressure etc, and then a section with technical questions and at the end I will have to listen to a taped help-desk conversation and take down all the details of that call.

Anyone do an interview like this there before?

Interview is next Thursday and only just finished an IT support course In January so my experience will probably go against me for it.

I got offered the job! (Talking about Pramerica)

Nice one.. well done

firemansam4

Congrats Flibbles!!

Good man. Well done

Got offered the job today for United Health care - unfortunately they could only offer me the position as a 6 month contract with a possibility of it being renewed.

But Ill take what I can get at the minute and even the 6 months experience will be of help, so will see how it goes.

Flibbles

By any chance was that for the Level 2 support?

Well the job application was for technical support analyst (No mention of level) but from the interview I got the impression that I would be started on level 1 with more simple stuff then moved up to level 2 from there I guess

Flibbles

I was just wondering, they rang me on Tuesday offering me a temporary contract Level 2 job (after saying I wasn't elligible for level 1!) once I'd started in Pramerica! Now I have a job people want to employ me

Employers always prefer somebody who already has a job, even if that doesn't seem fair to the unemployed. The fact that somebody was willing to give you a job proves you are worth employing.

9:00 to 4.30 atm, since this is an internship it's less than the full time people would work (8.30 - 4.30). American times suck, I was worried Pramerica would work on those times!

Really unfair, but someone gave me the chance
