Hey everyone! 🌟 Have you ever experienced a situation where the interviewer cancels the interview after you ask them if they have hired anyone in the past year? 🤔 Here’s my recent encounter and I would love to hear your thoughts on it!
So, I interviewed with this company a year ago, and during our recent communication, I casually asked if they had hired anyone in the past year. Instead of a straightforward answer, they mentioned needing a new fsq technician. However, our scheduled interview got cancelled because they found someone else – before even interviewing all their candidates.
Here are some possible solutions that I think could be helpful to avoid such situations in the future:
– Always maintain a professional and polite demeanor during interviews
– Ensure to research the company and their hiring history before asking such questions
– Follow up with the interviewer in a respectful manner to show your continued interest in the position
What do you think could be a possible solution to this scenario? Let’s discuss and learn from each other’s experiences! 💬 #JobSearch #InterviewTips #CareerAdvice
People are pure evil. How can someone like that look themselves in the mirror?
That’s why if they didn’t hire me the first time I’ll never interview there again
GoD I want to kill whoever came up with this wording on the rejection letters. 1000s of HR people and they use the same shitty letter
Don’t ever question. Not even subtly. If you don’t like the role, go somewhere else or go back to school or start your own business.
It is silly and stupid and I hate it too, but you as the employee have zero to little power. The only real power you have is to vote with your feet and go somewhere else.
At a company I previously worked for, we did periodically for a person on staff with a green card. The job was posted everywhere online and in papers, and the job was always miraculously filled by an in-house employee. The job offer would look normal but there was always the one random item in the job description that was catered to the employee.
it’s a fake job ads. They want to interview you to legitimize their rule. Simply wasting your time while completing their task. ✅ interviewed candidate today.
JFC, recruiters are too inept to even use AI. It’s still cut/paste with them.
Well, Mya, Mya, Mya.
I know it goes against the mindset here but I would have canceled too. I’ve filled positions where they didn’t work out, transferred to a similar internal position, or had new positions created. All those instances would have caused the same position to be posted again. OP just comes across as confrontational and abrasive. Definitely not a good fit for a team
For future reference, this is a question I would save for the hiring manager.
What company is this? That’s insane behavior. Help us steer clear of that shit pile.
Maybe it is because instead of agreeing to an interview you questioned their methods, leaving a bitter taste in their mouth?
You already interviewed, you knew what you were going into and could have been a successful candidate this round – now you’ll never know.
My favorite is when I get hit up on LinkedIn by a recruiter who already had me interview before, like they never met me. Dude, there’s a chat log of our discussion from last year.
Wow those results are really messed up..i can’t believe so many companies do this crap
