Courtesy on phone .you are taught that in what is the equivalent of primary four here in western world , long before anything other than telephone exists .OP do you know some of these " fine face" with rotten manners won't return your greetings as you , as a stranger walks into their compound ? I mean you greet someone 'cos you are trained to be courteous and she is predisposed to tagging " good afternoon " as advances towards her ! 2 Likes |

Juliearth: Phone courtesy .... caller needs to identify himself or herself. It is unprofessional for a representative of a company calling a personal phone and not identifying himself and company. What if the receiver answered in Hausa?... or Igbo?... or Yoruba?.... when business is conducted at the company in English?... should the interview be denied? If after identifying himself the applicant was not courteous or not professional then the HR person can deny her employment on the grounds of poor phone etiquette. "May I know who is this?" .... HR wasn't calling Buckingham Palace. Too many if us are over cultured.... and don't even know 3 Likes |

You do know that for the fact that we have good HR people doesn't mean we do not have bad ones too hr stafffs that loves acting like god when they have little power to recruit talent.

Wisemfon: I want more of this in work spheres abeg. Most workers are so rude & ill-mannered, you'll think they're doing you a favor allowing you patronize them. I've saved a lot of money, not because I'm good at saving, but because so many salesmen and women have disgusting manners. They be like if you no come, another customer go come. I rather keep my money in my pocket than waste it on swine. Even if I'm the only one not patronizing you, I don't bloody care, it's my money and I must drive maximum pleasure spending it. I can't work my ass off to get it, and still suffer spending it. Good riddance abeg... 2 Likes |

calcal: This is the problem with most employers. They see every job seeker as a slave who deserves zero respect. What stopped the untrained HR 'god' from making an immediate proper introduction? Why would you call someone and start asking them their name when you haven't introduced yourself? It is pure security daftness to answer a personal question asked by a total stranger on the phone. Further investigation would certainly reveal that it was even a slavish job. Nonsense and HR! ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Nicklaus619: Bro..... say no more. No doubt.... you live in a bubble..... the less you say the less people will know. Most men do favours and expect something in return. If you knew this... then you wouldn't see her question as being off. On the above.... if you think it is stupid for her to think that because she knows your gf you wouldn't think of her sexually.... you need to really think again. I guess you apply the same mentality to your buddy.... that knows your gf.... why will he ever think of your girlfriend sexually? Afterall..... all men are not scum. I wish you well. |

firstworld:. Let's call a spade a spade sir true, but I disagree with you. It is expected when you receive n picked a phone call to respond with hello, then the person will go on to say his mind, a simple senario is wen u called the attention of someone by calling his name, will u go ahead and start talking without the person responding? I believe the persons response will signal u that you have gotten his attention before you begin to talk..... The write up dint specify the job description, what if she got the job as a customer service representative of the said bank. Is that how she will respond to customers? That been said, on my own part I no blame the HR but the lady..... |

adrusa:I beg to disagree . We can't have MARLIANS a.k.a no manners at corporate desks discouraging customers and investors with their offensive attitude and manners .Even the numero uno marlian started his tirade and street parlance with " hello " in his latest song " koleyewon " , which unfortunately tomorrow has come for the lady to encounter " realisation " which is the ultimate message the song is passing to all who refused to heed warnings / lacks home training . Please get the points from the OP - She picks a call and can't return a simple "hello " ditto , instead she said " who is this " and then even before the introduction from the other end , again , out came " how did you get my number !" And to answer what someone pointed out , HR can't overrule a directive from a chairman or director to employ a jobseeker regardless of his or her approach if the potential employee's response on phone or the internet is not an issue with the company's management which is why the company has a policy of recording phone convo with applicants .our words can make us sit among kings or it can cost someone more than his life , hope we can all learn from her story . 2 Likes |

Your HR people are wrong. They were supposed to introduced themselves first before asking her for her identity. Stalkers abound these days and people are advised not to reveal their personal connections except to people who need it for something important. If someone I don’t recognize calls me, they have to introduce themselves before I divulge if indeed the number is mine or not. I won’t be rude to them but they shouldn’t expect me to be forward with that information when I don’t know who’s calling. 5 Likes 2 Shares |

pocohantas: Another thing is people feeling entitled to your kindness and calmness. Like they'd get your number, call/message you and start beating around the bush, trying to prank you and talk about how you'll miss some goodness bla bla bla if you don't cut things right to the point. And the "not all (male) caller is a chyker." Yes, but a good number of them are. Getting numbers from friends or 'stealing' it off a form or something. Men propositioned women like that and for someone who's had to tell them no a number of times, fed up, they'd respond like that. You're the one reaching out, you should be the one to introduce yourself and your reason for calling right after the "hellos." 2 Likes |

Why was it hard for HR to do a formal introduction. Always playing God I guess. Yes some people are rude and lack phone etiquette, the so called professionals that are supposed to lead the way are not helping matters. |

Originalsly: At the end if the day, it still boils down to manners. An applicant who is looking for a job should show restraint even when the other person messes up. An applicant needs the job more than the HR and should be more careful. I once received a call from a HR years back. The phone rang Me: Hello HR: Hello, are my speaking with *******(my name) I didn't want to say yes cos I don't know the person so I politely asked Me: please may I know who is speaking? HR: oh my bad, I'm sorry I didn't introduce myself. I am ***** from ****** Me: Thanks. I am ****** We continued and at the end It was successful. I think the girl should have been polite. HRs make mistakes quite alright but as someone who is looking for a job, I believe you should not allow the mistake of the HR to spoil your chance cos 2 wrongs don't make a right. |
