erac internal jobs

how can erac, open up a set number of jobs, then interview everyone. give one person the job and tell everyone else that they havent got the job, because there is now only one position!, AND THEN-a week or so later reopen the other positon again? why dont they just be honest with the candidates in the first place , rather than treat people like idiots and expect them to beleive the BS?

how demotivating is that?
do they think that all employees dont see this?
they MUST think their employees are as foolish as the GM/CM/ARM!
do they not see a link between this behaviour and people leaving by the dozen?

wankers.

I've been a part of it...If you interview 7 people and only one has the qualities you're looking for, you repost an opening until you find people with what you're looking for. People that actually interview well and can fill the spot.

yes, but why dont erac just be honest about this rather than say it is just because the position is no longer open!!!

From my time in u6 i know that people are earmarked for jobs before they are posted

Very tru...........same in my gp.

yeah but that's the same as most companies!

I also believe the "right person for the job" is also known as the easiest to move over as well.

don't forget your boss' opinion counts. It's been one long interview for the next promotion from your first day. The posts above are correct, many listings have someone earmarked for the job already. But it's not set in stone that person can sink themselves in an interview and someone else can shine.

The official interview for a spot has little to do with your qualifications (your manager has already forwarded your last 2 reviews and a letter of rec if you're any good,) it's more about whether you will be a good fit in the new spot with the new set of people you could possibly be working with...especially if the hiring manager sees you as a good fit.

That makes people angry, but that is corporate America.
