Unorganised mess

1
-When walking through the college campus to reception on the day of my interview a member of staff spoke to me like a child simply because I did not have a lanyard on. When stating I was there for an interview she quickly changed her tune however I guarantee if I looked older than I do she would not have done the same.
-The receptionist wrongly informed me of the gender and name of my interviewer and took 5 minutes after I arrived before phoning them to let me know I was sat waiting.
-My interviewer was 25 minutes late and did not apologise or give an explanation as to why this was.
-The interviewer also spoke to me as if I was a child.
-I was not informed to take any past qualifications to the interview, therefore, I did not have any to provide when asked.
-The interviewer wrote down incorrect information when I responded to one of her questions and had no knowledge of the course I was going on to.

I could go on but due to the word count I can not!

The course was professional, well organised and well taught. Materials were useful and good quality. Registration system was really very easy compared to other colleges.
