The Three Month Job Interview

by Anonymous
(Not telling ;-))

Here's my job horror story about a 3-month interview... Well it's not really an interview, but I have been happily strung along by a potential employer since May of this year.

I've learned several things along the way, though. In fact, I think I'm getting really good at reading body language and facial nuances, and that I'm really bored now... please don't ask any questions (semi-smile).

Since I am badly in need of a job right now, though, I have waited patiently for the 3-month job interview employer to send me another email asking me if I am still interested in the job. And to tell the truth, if I was not so desperate for a job, I would face the fact that this is not how I want to be treated and that it is probably not a good place to work after all.

I have been on two interviews, given my references (one has actually been contacted), and I received an email asking if "I'm still interested". I responded yes, and then I was told that a decision would be made this week. Oh well, it's only Tuesday and no response.

This to me is a horror story... a sad one, but pretty horrifying to me, because after all this time (I'm still actively looking for work and interviewing), I may not get the job.

Thanks, I do feel better!
