So about a month ago i got a job with caring agency ,altho not started yet as had to wait on ploice check,got it then they hadnt recieved ref so got that then the girl who is supervisor is away on 2 weeks holiday:mad:so the earliest will be next week,
Anyway last weeek seen a job advertised for a co-ordinator with another company went for interview today & it was funny the man just explained about the role, never really asked me anything, apart from a few things, the he said if i was successful id be called back for 2nd interview to meeet the directors of the firm?? alto he did comment that the experience i had it would be like teaching your granny to suck eggs!!
Hed took a few things of me & photocopied them driving licence etc & just said theyd be in touch ........im no further forward than when i went in , but dont know what to do as if i did get the job i wouldnt start this other job next week , does any1 know how long does it take for them to decide if you were getting a 2nd interview.......

depends on a few things. firstly the need of staff ie are they desperate? and the company 'policy'. Not to mention how many more they have to see, if they were interviewing say 50 ppl and you where number 1 you may have a wait, but on the other hand if they interviewed 10 ppl and you where number 10 they may call back today!
I have had interviews and not been out 30 mins when i have had a call for 2nd interview, on the other hand i have waited 3 weeks or so. If it is a small company they tend to move quicker than a big co with HR dept etc. hth0
