Why Was I Not Picked For This Job? by Mode4: 3:31pm On Aug 20, 2021
Please I need a candid explanation for this, if you have any.

I will try to be brief as much as possible.

So last two months I was invited for an interview in a new school that is about to begin by septamber, apparently a branch of one of the top missionary secondary schools in Nigeria. We were 22 in number that appeared for interview on that fateful day. The interview was for TWO subject teacher positions. I was interviewed for one of the subjects.

We all wrote a written test for one hour. At the end, according to them; Six persons emerged highest scorers. I was among the six persons. I.e, Three persons for EACH of the two subjects.

We were then subjected to an oral interview and micro teaching which lasted for about 20mins for each person. Well, I was the first. answered most of the questions that were thrown at me. I left feeling very satisfied. Just like you would write an exam and leave the hall feeling very good because you know you wrote well, that was how I felt that day.

Well, after the interview we exchanged contacts and I and the other guys have been communicating ever since. Till now no news from the HR team that interviewed us. And it's 2months already.

Well, the HR number was in the mail he sent to me for interview, So today I decided to call the HR. I was shocked to hear that the position we were interviewed for has been filled.

I am wondering? What really happened? Why didn't they pick from amongst the six of us Just why? I'm just being curious!

I said it that this year is my year

Congratulations to me on my first ever FTC, after so many attempts. grin grin grin


Dear OP, notwithstanding that you guys might have performed well during the interview, its possible that a final seletion board did not find ur performance satisfactory. Its also possible that another interview was conducted after yours.

If what you are saying is true, then what's the essence of making us go through the rigorous interview process if they won't do it based on merit?

Someone who knows someone must have been picked but you have already done the interview so don't worry, an opening might come up and you'll be called.

Prolly a slot from an insider filled the position.

For every vacancy, each staff gets a slot to fix his person. But they still go ahead to conduct test and interviews for formality sakes.

It's called strategize recruitment...
Never heard of that?

They need few candidates to take over a position...

The HR or boss has a personal candidate...
It's above the law to just bring in this favorite guys to fill in the position..

So you have to form a fake interview process with lots of steps ...

At the end...you guys go back home sleeping on false hope

While the real candidate resume office...

The HR enter the record on system" candidate are called upon and successful gone through series of interview and verification of file...we satisfies with so so so applicants records and test results...we offer him or a her a job here at so so organization"

You are just baits or decoy

My guy where are you from ? Most of the job interviews and exams are just mere formality. The jobs have been given to those that didn't come for the test or interview.

It happens daily.

Face it.

That's is why they always end each interview process with the saying...

" Thank You For Coming. We Will Get Back To You".

That statement is a Probability Statement.
