AAA hiring process

Complaint

PROVIDENCE, RHODE ISLAND -- Ok so I worked for AAA as a seasonal employee and I was told before the position ends apply for a permanent position(which I did several times) and I went for an interview. The interview was great but I continued to apply for any position that was posted to their website. Every now and then I'd check the status of my application online where it would say things like "application received", "selected another candidate", "application withdrew"...I saw the position I applied for stated "selected another candidate" so a couple weeks later they call me back about the interview and I was excited thinking I was getting a job. Well the HR personnel stated " I just called to let you know personally that you were not selected for this position!" I said "oh I knew that already I saw it online??" I was confused! Why would you call leave me a voice message just to tell me something I already knew!?? I didn't need them to call me at all!!! I mean don't get me wrong I really enjoyed my time at AAA and didn't want it to end but this just made me so upset!

Well at least they thought enough of you to call you personally. Odds are that a lot of people wouldn't have had the idea to check their application status online, so they would have spent weeks wondering or calling HR to find out what was going on.

Based on your description, I believe that they called you so that you would not fill out any more applications. As harsh as it sounds, I believe they are trying to make it known they do not wish to hire you for any position. Sometimes things just don't fit. Good luck in your search. One door closes another opens.
