HOLY SHIT!!!
I had interviewed for another role before xmas just on the off chance because it was a better role, but they said I wasn't a good fit. The recruiter hounded them for feedback, and it turns out they thought I was overqualified for it and they love me!!! I've got an interview with the managing director on Tuesday!!!
FUCK YES!!!!
Falling upwards! Fly free!
Woooooo!
Gotta love doors!
Amazing! Crossing every appendage for you that this is the one.
Onya mate!
That’s awesome news, good luck!!
w00t!
On a side note i fucking hate the 'overqualified' excuse. Ffs, you chose to apply for the role, you're aware of your own capabilities. That 'overqualified' crap is based on an assumption that you came begging hat in hand and would fuck off at the first better role leaving them sobbing and bereft - as if they wouldn't outsource or automate your role in a heartbeat for a 0.0001c increase in profits
Exactly! They had several chances to gauge that. I swear some companies are run like a kids lemonade stand.
Why waste my time and leave me in the lurch?!?!
Ah well, I'll leave my thoughts on glassdoor
