My dear biscuit chucker
First of all - look at it from my view...of the two times I have applied to Eastern, both times I have been rejected by Christine (if you had been thru what I have been thru for these interviews, you too would feel bitter)
Secondly - yes, she's just doing her job...but surely, as a manager (not anymore however), she could keep to her word in this regard (you don't tell someone they'll make a decision once the results are in, and found out they haven't waited for ALL of them). Had all the results been received, I probably wouldn't feel as bad (call me old fashioned, but I think honesty and commitment are very important)
Thirdly - She may indeed be a nice person. Biscuit chucker, if you had been rejected by the same person twice at the same airline, would you feel good/positive about it? I doubt it. Perhaps I am being harsh and snide about the whole thing - all part of the "grieving" process you might say.
Quite frankly, when I started this topic I was VERY angry. True, I knew (hell, experience has taught me this much) I could be rejected even at this late stage. Perhaps what you should know is that I had my first and third interview in a matter of days (I had no second interview, Eastern hurried me thru the process). Now, if you had managed to skip an entire level of the selection process, don't you think that I, or anyone else, am entitled to believe that we have something THEY want? So much so, to be asked to come in for a 3rd stage the NEXT DAY?
Whilst technically speaking I am over it now, I do believe a far better way of handling the whole process (and this goes for QF too) would be to interview applicants, THEN upon an offer of employment have them go for their medical and security check then (with the offer of employment able to be withdrawn should there be any problem in the medical/security checks). That way, the applicants know where they stand and they're not out of pocket for expenses.
And yes, I will continue to reapply to them and everyone else I'm able to apply for, until they eventually give in and have no other choice but to accept me!
Glutton for punishment? Maybe - do I have any other choice?
