Week 1: The earlier offer didn't complete and I was offered another role that I applied in JP Morgan. The Interview was scheduled on December 7th 2009. Week 2 : I was told that I got through the first interview and the next stage would be to attend a Pen & Paper test. Week 3 : The interview was scheduled with Hiring manager and the Hiring manager didn't turn up because of bad weather. Week 4 : being the week before Christmas, HR mentioned that it would be new year before I hear any news. Week 6: Second week in January '10 and followed up with HR Co-ordinator on the potential dates for second interview. No response. Week 7: HR Recruiter (Not the co-ordinator) responds all interview have been put on hold until end of month. Week 9 , February 10: HR Recruiter nearly forgot about the role and responds, an offer was made to another candidate, without ever realising I actually attended a first interview and was through to second interview.
