Had 2 interviews over the last month and didn't get either gig.
First gig was a tech support position at a Sporting Goods store(paragon sports in NYC) Interview went great, passed the drug test & the background check. The outcome? I was "over qualified" for the position. You knew that the minute you saw my resume...why waste my time?
Second was a systems engineer position at NBC studios. Interview went cool. Didn't know a few things but made it certain i was more than willing to learn beyond the books. Interviewer seemed to like me and set me up for my background check and drug test. Both came back clean. The outcome? They decided to hire someone within the company. Why not hire within in the first place?
Why bother calling people in if you don't plan on hiring them in the first place? Any hiring managers on here want to chime in?
