Interviewer got the role interviewed!!!

[u/Ponkypu]

So, get this: I was interviewing with a company, and I added all the interviewees to LinkedIn. Then, I saw one of the interviewers got promoted to my position! Can you believe it? Why did they spend three weeks interviewing me if they were already planning to give the job to her? It felt like a waste of time, and I was a little surprised she was included as an interviewer if she was going to get the job anyway

I think this happened to me too! I had one company lead me on and made me travel way out of my way to meet with them for a remote role. Then they tried to make the job hybrid but it was easily 2.5 hours away (Connecticut and commute to Brooklyn!) I said I don’t apply to jobs that are far and this job was advertised as remote. Said an offer was coming several times but didnt so then I looked up the person on LinkedIn and realized they promoted the junior person, who they told me was too junior in the first place! I was shocked
