I had three interviews for an internal position.
It's for one of the companies that serves as a sister company to the one I currently work at.
The interviews were all in person. I had a fourth on the phone with HR. The first three were good. But HR said they recommended that I not be hired bc I had moved around for most of the time I have been working. But that's very weird bc I was in my 20s and I don't really see what that would have to do with this job. I had explained the reason to the HR manager and my would be boss. My would be boss said she had looked at my resume but nothing stuck out to her. During our interviews she had gone through my resume and my moving had come up but no one seemed concerned.
My would be boss thought it was an odd reason for the hiring manager to not recommend me saying she thought it would be a slam dunk and she was extremely disappointed (which went straight to my head
).
So my would be manager asked me if I could meet with the HR person to explain my moving.
But the HR person, who works a couple of floors away did not want to meet.
I think my would be boss found that odd as well.
I just find the whole thing odd and during the interview yesterday and after I got off the phone with the HR person I felt like the person was not impressed. It's like my answers were not good enough for them.
Idk if anyone here knows someone this has happened to. Insight?
The only reason that makes sense is that the job needs someone long term. My would be boss said they were looking for people to take over once people were aged out or since the company is growing I have the option of working in different places in the US.
But for either of those they would prefer someone who will be there long term.
