totally bummed

Original post by LisaT

all my potential job possibilities seem to be disappearing. One's on 'hold' for a few weeks, one I decided I didn't want, and I just got rejected for the position I interviewed for last week.

The interviews went really well and I know they checked up on me and got great references, but the ended up making an offer to someone internal. Another blow to my ego courtesy of Schwab.

At the moment, there's only one left - I did a phone interview, but they haven't decided who they're bringing in yet.

I'm getting discouraged again.

sorry to hear that Lisa...

wouldn't you technically be an internal hire?

when one door closes...another opens...right?

I'm considered the next best thing to internal, but not really 'internal' because I would increase head count. Which I never understood, since they'd need to backfill whatever position this person just came from. So they'll always be an increase. I'd get preferential treatment over someone that never worked there, but not over someone who currently does.

Thanks for all the well wishes and support girls! I was bummed when I got the news yesterday but I'm feeling a lot better today.
