Is it bad if a job you interviewed for is reposted?
I've applied for a job which has been reposted and I'm just waiting to hear back from them.
They were asking me to come in for an interview as soon as they could schedule my interview. Should I be worried that if they do not get back to me I will get overlooked or is this nothing to be concerned about?
You do not need to be concerned. If they do not want to interview you, they will let you know via the normal process - by letter or email.
Your question here is the same as the question we get from people who are not happy with the way their CV has been sorted out by some recruiter. "Will I get overlooked?" You might well be overlooked, but it doesn't matter if you are or not. If they don't want to interview you, you will be informed so that you can make your next move.
I was hired for a position that was posted in the newspaper. It was never meant for someone who had my skill set but I couldn't find anyone else with my skills. It wasn't that the person hiring me hadn't thought of me. It's just that they found the perfect fit for their opening elsewhere.
Can you assume you didn t get a job you applied for recently reposted again on LinkedIn?
I was told I applied for a job where I didn't even know the company name.
Then I was told I got it and when I asked for details, they gave me none. When I asked for an email to contact them and follow up, they told me I should just accept it and move on.
It seems like one of these type of companies is looking for candidates that are willing to accept something without having all the information. Do you think I should contact them back and ask for more information? You should definitely reach out to the person that was involved in making the hiring decision. He or she is likely to have some knowledge about the position and the company that can help you move forward. You don't necessarily need a lot of detail, but asking for a name of the company and title might be a good starting point. You can also ask if you're missing any relevant information, as you might be able to get some insight about why they weren't able to tell you anything about the company or job.
If the hiring manager was so ill-informed about the company that he or she couldn't give you any information about the position, it suggests that they don't really have a whole lot of time to devote to the hiring process. While this might not mean they're the ones to blame for not doing their due diligence before interviewing you, it does mean they're not likely to be the best resource for getting you a new job.
I'm going to say yes, assuming you've already done the research to make sure you're qualified for the job you're applying for. It could be a company that's completely new to you, and you may not have the name of the company or position yet. If that's the case, it would be reasonable to ask for a chance to follow up and find out more information.
What's the worst thing that can happen? The hiring manager hasn't heard of the company and doesn't know what the job entails. That's better than a candidate who has applied for a job that doesn't exist. Even if they can't tell you much, you still might learn something about the company that you can use to your advantage.
Is it normal to interview for the same job twice?
I'm currently in the interview process with a well known company, which I've been told by other people that they interview for the same job twice because they don't want to lose any candidates.
? It is not unusual. I've seen it several times. Usually, when they do this, they have an internal candidate for the position in addition to the external candidate, and they don't want the internal candidate to get the job.
If you're interviewing for the position, there's no need to interview again, since the company has already made their choice. If you are interviewing for a different job, you should certainly go through the process again, since it is a common interview practice, but there's nothing wrong with doing it multiple times.
No. I've never heard of a company doing this.
It is perfectly normal and there is nothing wrong with it. A company will be more likely to repeat the process with an external candidate if they think that the internal candidate isn't quite right for the job. In that case they may even have two separate interviews. They may also have a third interview if the first two were unsuccessful.
Why was a job I accepted reposted?
I recently accepted a job offer with a large company that is based in.
North Carolina. I am excited about the job but I have a concern. My
current job requires me to relocate to Charlotte. I am willing to relocate because my family has already moved down there. However, the company that is offering me the job requires me to move down there. immediately. They said that if I could not move down there right away, then they would be unable to consider me for the position. This is causing me a lot of stress. When I was applying for jobs, I had several friends that were doing the same thing. As a result, they were able to get two jobs with a company and one of them ended up not being able to take the job with the company she originally applied to. She was offered a job with the other company and ended up staying in the same city.
While I have no doubt that the company is legitimate, I have been having a hard time convincing myself that they wouldn't just move me back into my old job and be done with it. I can't imagine why anyone would offer me a job in another city, without knowing I would be willing to move there.
It's probably nothing to worry about. There are plenty of companies out there who don't care where you live as long as you're able to work. You say you're willing to relocate. That's all they need.
They might also be making an exception for you because they're in your home state. They may have decided to let you live in your home state while you look for a job, then pay you a decent salary in North Carolina.
You should never assume that a company will lie to you. They have their reasons for doing what they do.
