I'm looking for a new job, and found a great position that was only a ten minute bike ride from my house. Score!!! Fill out the application online, get contacted a couple days later to schedule an initial phone interview. The morning of the interview, the recruiter emails me to tell me that the position has been filled, but there are a couple other nearby locations. I let her know that my preference is for the original location but that one of the others would be fine for me. We hold our phone interview, it seems to go well, and she says someone will definitely be contacting me over the next week. If I don't hear back, I should contact her. I wait a few days and reach out again. She tells me this position is filled too. Last week I'm browsing jobs again and notice that both positions are still showing as open on the company website and there's a third position about 12 miles from my house. I email the recruiter to ask if she can transfer my application or if I should submit a new one and she tells me that THIS position is filled too. At this point I want to scream
What's going on here? Did I just not get the job and she's telling me in a really indirect way? If I didn't get it I'd like some feedback if possible.
Should I tell her that the positions are all still showing open on the website? Should I ask for feedback anyway? Or just write this off as shitty incompetence.
