Interview
I was called shortly after applying to schedule an interview for later in the week.
The first interview was fantastic, I was getting a lot of signs and talk that I’d fit right in and the interviewer said she loved my attitude and wanted me to start ASAP, and that I needed to follow up with the GM. I got that interview scheduled for a few days later with high hopes, and this whole process was finished in about five minutes.
The second interview was nowhere near as promising. I was asked about my most recent two jobs and the interview was abruptly ended (under five minutes total.) I was told to expect a call on Friday (the following day) or Monday.
One week later, I heard nothing at all and called to ask for an update. The manager I spoke with said she’d speak with the GM and would call me back the following Monday. It’s been another week and it’s still radio silence with nobody even answering the phone.
