I was called for the initial interview and showed up 10 minutes early for the interview. Miscommunication happened and the GM thought it was later. Once she got there she got pulled by a customer. In total my interview didnt start til an hour later. Things happen. Move forward. The interview was great, casual and fun. Felt a great connection with the GM and was later called for a second interview with the district manager. I pull into the parking lot the day of the second interview to answer a phone call from the GM apologizing that the district manager "forgot" but I could just come in and do a phone interview from the store. Ok. I'm a little bothered as to this is the second time of very scattered, disorganized actions, but again, things happen. The interview with district manager was casual but when pay was brought up he chuckled when I gave him a number.
After 2 interviews, with the GM and the district manager, nobody called me or emailed to inform me of them obviously moving forward with someone else. I think its disrespectful to abuse someone's time like that. Also, I am very greatful for honest feedback and love to hear areas of opportunity for me to grow. But. If pay was the issue, be professional enough to communicate to the candidate that we are not a match based on those reasons. And if its for other reasons, be a leader and help people grow by giving them constructive criticism to better themselves for the next interview.
