Both times I applied, I had received an email within 24 hours to schedule an initial basic info phone interview. After the basic phone interview, I had a second interview with a District Manager. I was told she would let me know if I got to take the next step "within a week or two". Never heard back either way.
Two months later, the position came up again, I re-applied, got the quick response for the basic first phone interview (didn't have my stuff on file). Was told that I had advanced to step 2 -- speaking with the District Manager (again) "within a few days"...
It wasn't until about EIGHT WEEKS after the 2nd attempt before they decided to send me a form e-mail saying "they decided to go with someone else". Shocked, I tell you!!
No surprise the position is open AGAIN (3rd time within 6 months). If they want me, they should still have 2 copies of my resume and notes from the 3 calls on file. However, my price has gone up if they wish to have me waste my time jumping through their interview hoops again....
