The HR person is also at fault here cus the person didn't follow bank policy when it comes to phone etiquette. Like as a customer care officer when ever u are calling a customer u have to first introduce your self to the person first before any other thing thats how it works. Onless the phone etiquette is also part of the HR requirements or interview for accepting some someone into the organization but if not the blame should not be on the lady alone cus we are all in this country and know what is happening. Pls we should not only put the blame on the lady only cus she is trying to be a on safer side to avoid stories that touches the heart but she should try to be patient sometimes to listen than talking much. Cus when u listen more u should be able to understand whats going on. Those people saying she didn't say hello is not necessary even in bank when we received calls we don't say hello. You will only said thank you for calling so so branch or unit then ur name and u ask how can u help or assist the person so not saying hello is not an offence. |

Richy4: You are one funny dude, you should know that. Someone called you and you're the one introducing yourself first? The fact that you made it a habit doesn't mean that that should be the standard for everyone. The person calling you already knew who he was calling, introducing yourself is not necessary. The person calling you is the one who needs to introduce him/herself. The only thing you owe him is the patience to hear him out. when u said she should have been cautious as a job seeker, were you indirectly implying that she should pretend to be nice while speaking to You as a HR then later unleash the stuff she was made of while working with customers?.. .No wonder mannerless people occupy customer service positions if U as someone working with HR couldn't see what the other HR saw... . He made it clear that the girl was also at fault, just that the HR man wasn't entirely blameless. So, why saying that he didn't see what HR saw? I'm glad that the experienced HR dictated it early.. there were lot of mannerless people in the bank those days especially in First Bank.. Imagine adding this one to their statistics... though I don't know if they were still like that.. That HR if you asked me, lacks experience. At least, he didn't make use of it. 2 Likes |

Wisemfon:In my opinion her response isn't enough to make her loose the job, there is something called paradigm shift,does the HR know what she was going through at that time? It's stupid Nigerian businesses that does that, multinationals won't do that to their new staffs 2 Likes |

Chachangi:Why not? Nigeria is completely filled up with 419ers and kidnappers. Why should I pretend that all is well and answer a strange number with, "Hello"? Your number is strange on my phone, therefore, "WHO IS THIS". On a good day, "WHO THE Bleep IS THIS"? |

I dont know what our problem is But I feel that millions of parents have failed woefully in raising their kids right. I worked in the customer services sector and if I tell you that I can count the number of people that have basic social skills best believe it. Basic. Social Skills. Pick up the phone with a greeting. Answer like a human being with a future. Answer whatsapp messages.Dont read and ignore.If you must leave,make it known. A little bit of politeness goes a long way. |

m140:You guys are sleeping. I sent my CV to one agency. A few days later, I received an SMS from whomever to go to a location for an interview. And it turned out, those were GNLD people. Totally disconnected from the original people I sent my CV to. In the interview, I showed them the SMS and they were just laughing. So, Why shouldn't I ask, "WHO IS THIS, HOW DID YOU GET MY NUMBER", on my next random phone call? Is there no more sanctity and privacy of one's data again in Nigeria? 2 Likes |

Nicklaus619: Please buy 4 chilled bottles of Budweiser for yourself on my behalf! I'll pay anytime we meet ![]() The societal values and norms have gone down the drain. Any man trying to be nice to a lady now is usually imputed with ulterior motives. But please keep doing your best to be good. You may accept the apologies of your colleague and continue helping her. You can tactfully and kindly explain to her that not all men are the same. That you are different. She must have learned her lesson anyway. 2 Likes |

That's why am very careful treating any number without a name calling me because I saved all my contacts with their names . But some people say they don't pick strange numbers. Ladies are fund of that, not responding well to strange numbers because they feel issa guy calling. Better adjust cos you might be missing opportunities always. |

natanyin: Her response was aggressive and that is “professionally” rude. Upon Answering an unknown caller, She should’ve just said Hello and wait for a response. |

Richy4: @Richy4. Have you heard of work culture? Society culture? Do you know average Nigerians answer or pick calls by being rude. (If they don't have the number in their contact) What she did is what every average nigerians would do. I will go ahead and employ the one with bad phone manners because that's how average Nigerians answer phones. Also she knows she was rude to me i still give her the job that will make her be on best behaviour. How about if your boss thats your superior said employ call miss xyz to resume next week and she was rude to you are you going to say cuz she was rude you won't recruit or employ her. You seem like someone that like HR, one quality of HR personnel is to keep calm remember you hold all the cards to hiring and firing and best mood is when potential talents start saying sorry etc and you still offer them the job Have a goid day sir. |

Juliearth: The HR's expectation is she should answer her private phone as if she were on the job. "Who is this?" was not acceptable... therefore answering in another language will also not be acceptable. "Who is this?" is a common way of answering informal calls or knocks on doors when the person doesn't know who is at the other end. The point of the matter is why didn't he identify himself? It tells a whole lot about a company when the HR representative doesn't have phone etiquette. 2 Likes |

firstworld:The HR personnel is not at fault. I believe knowing the prospective employees phone etiquette and manners is a good strategy for screening out rude and mannerless people. So, it is better not to introduce yourself first when on such calls to avoid people feigning manners and pretending to be who they are not. |
