Why would company B wait until a person is not working to schedule a job interview? I spent months while I was working at company A applying for job positions at company B and even applied to a job position I have experience in and it pays what I wanted. I contacted the recruiter from company B a few days after I applied for a job position I was currently working at company A. It even paid the same amount. The only difference is that company A would make you work 6 different areas and not just one like company B. This is what I wanted. I prefer a job position that you only have to work 1 specific area. The recruiter from company B even confirmed to me when I called that the job position was still available and no interviews were scheduled yet for that position. A week later the job was no longer on the website which means the job was taken. The recruiter told me in the past if the a job position is no longer posted that it's already filled. Now that I no longer work for company A and I applied for a different job position at company B since they didn't have what I wanted, I got a call the same freaking day for a job position that pays less. I told her I would go to the interview.
I emailed her during the weekend that I will go to the job interview but this will just be a temporary job until they offer me a job that pays what I want (they have many of those there) or until I find a job a different company. She will most likely cancel the job interview and either offer me another job position that pays what I am looking for or no longer call me for any interviews. If she doesn't cancel the interview, I will let the person interviewing me know that I am only interested in this job position because I can't find a job I want and that if I get hired I might work there only for a few weeks or a couple of weeks in that job position until the same company offers me a job position that pays what I want or if I find another job at another company.
There you go, I wrote it again. If you don't understand it then you should go back to elementary school.
