2 months ago I applied for an operations manager position with a new manufacturing company. My 22 years of military experience lined up perfectly for it. I got a call from the founder the next day and did a phone interview. He said he was impressed and said his director of operations would call me to schedule the interview.
2 weeks later, nothing... so I followed up with him via email and he called me stating they weren't moving forward with that position and offered me another job as a Quality Assurance Manager. Still within my wheelhouse and I went in for 2 in person interviews this time. I got a tour of the plant, warehouses, discussed the role with the founder and director of ops, and even met the founder's wife. They said they'd reach out in a few days to get started with on-boarding.
2 weeks later, nothing... so I follow up and the founder states they have been busy and haven't had time. I get it.. shit happens. He said he would keep me posted.
3 days ago... still nothing... so i follow up and they say they are in a holding pattern for the position. I said thanks for the update, and figured that was the end of it all, thanks for wasting my time for 2 months.
1 hour ago... they post the job position on indeed as urgently hiring.
I fucking hate everything.
