[QUOTE="Holly, post: 35799, member: 3874"] Hi [USER=2672]@Jessica Booker[/USER] This might be a silly question but can you make a subject access request after a firm has provided you with very vague feedback following an interview? One problem I have noticed with feedback calls from HR following a partner interview, is that they can only read the partner’s written comments. Often I’ll ask questions for clarification and HR is unsure because the partner’s comments were unclear. For example, one of the comments for improvement I received was that I “often paused/was thinking before answering some questions”. So, I asked “next time shall I try and respond quickly after a question has been asked and say the first thing that comes to my mind?” And HR said she’s unsure and doesn’t see why pausing was a problem and it doesn’t say I paused for long, and she can only tell me what they have written down. I obviously won’t say what firm this was but I know vague feedback can be quite frustrating for some candidates as it is difficult to learn and improve for the next time. Thanks a lot :) [/QUOTE]
