(32,093 posts)I just saw a new advertisement for one of the jobs for which I interviewed last week. This after stressing out over it for over a week. It may or may not be a second position with the same title, as the new ad was for a temporary position. The one for which I interviewed was not. But, I don't have a good feeling about it. It was a state job, so who knows what the hell is going on.

(16,862 posts)It's a different department in the same place I've worked for 25 years. Just makes me feel worse knowing that.

(16,862 posts)I didn't get the job. They offered it to someone in the company with more experience in the field. While I understand it from a business standpoint, I'm still pretty bummed about it.
That said, there is a claim that they still want me to pick up some hours to 'get my feet wet'. I will believe it when it actually happens, though.
