[QUOTE="Magnus, post: 779859, member: 22193"] Don’t get your hopes up, keep trying but don’t hinge on just this otherwise you’ll miss out on other possible opportunities elsewhere. Basically, I’m saying they likely snowed you and are going to give you the silent treatment for weeks, possibly months on end before you get impatient enough to call them up, only for them to tell you “nope, sorry – try again later”. They do these ‘hiring’ things right now on a “just in case” basis to cover their own asses if somebody suddenly flakes out and they need immediate replacements to fill those spots – not because there’s already an actual, vacant job opening. So again, don’t count on it and keep applying anywhere and everywhere else you can in the meantime. They’ve been playing these same games with me and a few others of their Seasonal veterans for over two years now, if that’s any indication for you. Also, background checks take a maximum of FOUR DAYS, not a week, not two weeks, but FOUR DAYS or less. If they REALLY needed you in there, you’d have been completely through the hiring process by now and a quarter of the way through your training – at least that’s going by how it goes for Seasonals, logic tells me that same one-week timeline applies to the other job hiring processes as well. Good luck all the same. EDIT: By the way, the fact that the job has been pulled off of the careers listings is a bad sign. They left my application up after my interview for this same job until about August, from May and then it disappeared - meaning I didn't get it. Chances are that's going to happen to you as well and that's when you'll find out - they won't call you to tell you UNLESS you've actually got the job. Just FYI. [/QUOTE]
