Home Depot Really
So I did my application, added my resume and did the phone interview. I was given a date to come in for my face to face interview however the day of the interview someone called an hour before I was to go in and told me that they had to cancel all interviews and they would call me back to reschedule another interview. I asked this person what was the problem she said not to worry I will be getting a call back. Two weeks later still no dam call so I talked to a girl that has been working there for a good while and she says something about they cancelled everybody interview that were scheduled to come in that day because the corporate office people were in the store doing something smh she gave me a number to call this woman and as usual they never answered the phone I left over twelve messages still nothing this is week three now.Should I just give up or go show out they shouldn't be treating people this way , they should not say they are hiring if they are not it's aggravating and frustrating.
First of all the receptionist should not give out any information on what was being done in the office. All office information should remain there in the office. If the individuals in charge found it necessary to go purchase something and cancel all interviews for the day. Take into consideration maybe it was being purchased for the individuals being interviewed. If it has been two weeks maybe you should also take into consideration to look else where for a job. Do not get agitated or frustrated when one door closes two or more open.
You really should only be calling once a week to follow up. You might be calling too much. Try calling the main store line and ask to speak with the hiring manager.
Hi April:
What a super frustrating situation to be in. On the plus side you know that all interviews were cancelled for that location. For whatever reason, corporate put on a hiring freeze.
I am concerned that you called and left so many messages. Everyone always says "Call them to show them you are interested". That is good advice if you call only once. Twelve times might put you in the spot of being seen as a nuisance, even if your intentions are well-meant.
You have applied and followed up well past the typical due-diligence of an applicant. I would let it go at this time.
