People usually frown on suicide bombings from what I understand.

If they hired that fast, you were most likely never a consideration in the first place. Assuming they didn't already have their hire lined up when they called you, that person was selected between whenever they got off the phone with you & the time you got there. Most hires aren't made in what amounts to a day at most.

I would at least have wanted to speak to the person who told me to show up. That is unethical.

I should elaborate. This was for an off campus work study position. I live in NYC go to college in mahanttan. This position was in long island.

Happened to me before. Walk in the door and overhear someone talking to another person asking about when they can start, and then they sit me down for what was pretty clearly a sham interview that lasted like 5 mins and the person doing it was obviously not into it.

In personal experience, work study programs tend to be primarily run on waiting lists & nepotism. In that case, you most likely got jumped by someone's buddy

By lying? I'm leaning toward they just hired the first person that showed up.

Jeez dude, even if your job was flipping burgers I would not recommend showing up to the interview in a hoodie

I forgot to ask if there was any dress code or anything like that. But felt it was a work study job. It wasn't a serious interview like fast-food or dean's office. It was for the athletic department. Earlier I said they could have hired another person but it is also possible they judged me on my looks and said no. I haven't updated the thread but I was able to get an on campus position in the library. The person hiring didn't care about my outfit or resume. I am the person who checks out books and loans out laptops.

You should still dress like an adult for interviews.


Have you ever had a work study job?

I thought I should be careful since if I had an altercation they could just call my school and i'd get in trouble.
