Re: Baited and switched during interview: WTF?
KT,
That's completely amateur hour on the company's part. The way the company is supposed to do that is to interview you, talk about how much they like you, get you really pumped about the opportunity, and THEN mention that the only issue is they were really thinking about someone more senior for the Director level position and were taking a bit of a flyer with your interview. Then they talk about how much they like you and how much they want you, but it is hard to really justify going with you compared to the experience level of the other candidates. Hey, wait a sec, perhaps you'd be willing to consider coming in to this role in a manager position with a goal of quickly moving you up to Director level once you've demonstrated your abilities for a bit?
