    Unhappy Just got a call from the SO

    I didn't make this round of hirings. :mad:

    I'm on the eligibility list for the next year, but out of the 100 personnel on the list, only 1 or 2 is hired off there. I also wasn't given a reason as to why I didn't make it, only that I hadn't. When I asked her, she didn't have an answer.

    Soooo, it's off to another 3 or 4 agencies till one gives me the nod.:D

    At least they had the courtesy to give you a phone call... I didn't find out until I called to check on my status, and the HR person was rude to boot! :mad: Just gotta keep on keepin' on... Good luck!

    Well with only a 2% chance of getting hired out of ELIGIBILE CANDIDATES, it seems like a very competitive department. Good luck.

    Most of the departments around here usually hire about 10% of total candidates who start the process. The other 90% fail at some aspect, but once you complete everything, you usually do get hired.

    I mean, we're getting killed for these people and they don't even appreciate it. They think it's a big joke.

    I filled out apps, took tests , did interviews for nearly 2 years before I got hired and than I got TWO offers on one day. Be patient and keep trying.
