I had an interview yesterday. I think it went well. I am trying to think positive thoughts and hope it results in employment. Of course, until there is an official job offer on the table the search continues...
This morning I received an email from a job I had applied for saying they were interested in speaking with me about the position - that they had tried to call but were unsuccessful at getting a hold of me. They suggested I call or respond by email ASAP as they wanted to fill the position immediately. I emailed back 14 minutes later - explaining I could not call (because I was temporarily out of minutes on my cellphone) I said I was still interested in the position and they could either call me (it is free to accept calls in Australia) or respond by email whichever was more convenient.
An hour passed with no email response and no call - so I went to purchase minutes for my phone. I called the job, but there was no answer. I called back an hour and half later - and was finally able to speak with the agent. She told me the position had already been filled a few hours ago. Awesome. I thought I would at least get an interview out of this one.
Did I mention I don't think they really even tried to call in the first place? I had no missed calls. No voicemails. What the heck? I kind of feel like they were just messing with me. Oh well, on to the next...
