Woman Blasts “Nightmare” Interview Process in Viral TikTok

TikToker Natalya Haddix became a viral sensation on social media after she described a “nightmare’ job interview experience. She had to attend an in-person initial interview, where other people were vying to get the job. In addition, she had to complete a paper job application that offered her a salary that was too low.

Natalya is a blogger who uses the name @natalyahaddix On TikTok she said in a video that went viral, “I had never experienced such disrespect in my entire life.” It’s hard to describe what I experienced during this interview. They don’t matter to us.”

Natalya describes her interview experience, which she believes shows that the company she applied for doesn’t really care about its workers. “I got a reply from Brand IQ Miami Florida saying they liked my application and would like to interview me. Can you come to this interview?”

I’m thinking, “OK, that is a bit inconvenient, but maybe a call or a Zoom call would be better. You want me to travel 45 minutes for my first interview. However, I am going to go. When I continue to research the company, some red-flags start appearing. First, they are not at all the company that I had thought.

The mission, the vision, the brand, or their values are not present. It is not an entry level position. OK, it is a job that requires some experience. They want $36,00 to $38,000.

But I also think that maybe, there is something wrong. I will go in anyway, and find out about them.” The office is actually a tiny room, with two small fishbowls.

There were about ten people in the first fishbowl, and as I walked in I said, “Hello, my name is Natalya. I am here to interview.” This receptionist stands up, and says hey! I’d like you to complete this. Fill out what? It’s like you already have my resume and my application. I actually brought one with me. It was a paper form, as though I had applied for a job.

At this point, I am like “yo” I did not work hard in my career to apply for this job. What is happening? In the fishbowl next to us, there is a man who seems like he’s interviewing people. We are right in front. They’re right in front of us. “I suddenly have knowledge about them that I didn’t want to know.”

Natalya was now able to see and hear enough, and she decided to find out what was happening. “After the interview period has passed and I am still sitting here this man comes in. He asks for two more people to come with him. What am I still doing? So I asked the girl: “What is this?” “What is happening?”

“She looks directly at me, and says ‘This interview’. “I said to her, ‘baby girl. I understand that this is an interview. I will not be there. Then I said, “Thank you for your time but I am actually fine and walked away.” You can do an interview like this to demonstrate that you are not interested in your employees and they’re disposable.

TikTokers have been divided on Natalya. Others said the process of interviewing Natalya was not that different from other interviewing practices they have experienced.

Other TikTokers echoed Natalya’s feelings and praised her for leaving the app. They said that this was a very strange experience.
