Kirby Posted April 30, 2019 Share #27 Posted April 30, 2019 I think everyone talking about grape pie forgets that my oven hasn't been turned on in over 10 years. That is not a sign of a baker. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure where they are dinging me, I was personable and charming without being smarmy, my experience is good and pertinent, they all seemed to like me, I asked solid questions, wrote good individual follow ups. I am kinda pissed, actually. You generally know how you did, and I felt I really nailed it. I have never had that ‘totally nailed it’ feeling after a long 2nd interview and not gotten an offer before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've had interviews like that before. Generally, that's a sign that the folks involved liked and wanted you on the team, BUT there was already a predetermined candidate that was going to get hired and you never really had a chance. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think it is that, I think they hire enough to have some turnover. I am definitely going to write a follow-up and ask for specific feedback. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
