Pros

Not applicable, as I only received an email with two attachments.

The first document is to get my personal information (national information, family information, salary information, etc.).

Cons

I'm not sure if it makes sense to request confidential information in the first email I received from Accenture after I applied on LinkedIn.

There were two attachments in Excel. The first document was to refer to pros, and the second document was to get my breakdown of my salary (yes, a super detailed breakdown, from my basic salary, different allowances, EPF contribution percentage, Tax ID, etc.).

To me, I don't think it makes sense to provide such detailed personal as well as current job information, so I filled part of the fields in the first document and replied to the sender stating I would provide full details if the interview invitation moved to the end.

There was no reply for days, and I sent an email to follow up, unfortunately with no reply as well.

I'm super curious why Accenture needs such confidential information in just an interview application?

Advice to Management

More modern recruiting process

  • Forms are much better than Excel files.
  • Avoid getting confidential information at the early phase of the interview.
  • Hiring is dishonest if you make me feel that you're creating the opportunities just to gather market information.
