Bright environment
The first interview went pretty well. I waited a month to hear about the second interview, and HR apologized over the phone, saying that the company was relocating, which was why the interview had been delayed until then. However, when I went in, the interviewer told me that the previous person had resigned after working for only two weeks because the pressure was too great. I felt a little uncomfortable at the time. It was the same company, yet two people gave different explanations. I decided to let it go since the second interview itself went fairly smoothly. Two days later, I asked HR about the status and was told that they were still in the interview stage and would not have a result until the end of the month. But then I waited another two weeks, and when I called to ask, I received the very official response: “We’re sorry. You’re very good, but you’re not a good fit.” I was completely dumbfounded. Throughout the application process, I was very proactive, while you were very passive. I just don’t understand: if I wasn’t a good fit, why didn’t you tell me sooner instead of waiting for me to take the initiative to ask? I don’t understand what your hiring criteria are. More than two months have passed, and the position is still posted.
