I guess I sound like edl nutter. Picture this though
You've been a temp proving yourself the last 6 months. They've let you go after 6 months. They ring you back 2 weeks later and give you another 9 month contract. Then they let you go. 2 weeks later they ring you up offer you another 6 months
Now.... 2 years has passed, and law states you can't string someone along for 2 years as a temp, you need to interview them for the job permanently, or advertise
Of course, they've been doing it by the book all along haven't they? They haven't messed me around at all have they?
So, the job gets advertised. I apply for it. It's my first job. I get a special internal interview because I shouldn't be able to have favourable insight over other applicants
So, in the interview I get asked a question relating to the job. I answer it. They tell me I can't use examples from the actual job. But it's the only job I've ever had
Didn't get the job
