@thecreativeone91 Damn, how do you manage that

I'd agree with the "no payscale - no interview" idea. They aren't serious if they won't talk basics before going to a full interview.

You don't fancy the company and they're dicking you around already.
This is what I refer to as "failing the interview before getting in the room." The company already failed their side of the interview. They will never know that they did, but they did. No different than them reading a resume and binning it without telling the candidate that they took the time to look at the resume.

Seems like I do them regularly I've averaging about 10-15 a month now. I've turned down quite a few job offers for various reasons.
Bloody Hell! I'm not sure I've had 15 interviews in my entire life and I'm 43!

I've had many more jobs than that! And I interviewed for all of those, I think.

They called me twice today while I was busy and left a message wanting to know when I was available for an interview. Apparently they are either desperate or really want to hire me. Not sure which.

I get interviews for most jobs I apply for. Though not necessarily job offers. Especially with phone interviews if they do those. I'm not very good at phone interviews.

OK, I've just counted. Since I left school in 1990 I've had 18 job interviews, which resulted in 14 job offers, of which I accepted 9. I've applied to loads of jobs that I never got interviews for, though.
I haven't been to a job interview since I got the current job in 2003, so I could really do with some practice.

It's been the same since I've been on an interview (ok a bit longer 2000). My current job was moving from a MSP to this company. The interview was informal and more about salary negotiation.

Funny thing is they called back again today. I wanted to talk money and somehow they decided the position had already been filed. Looks like they were probably just trying to get a low payed unsuspecting Virginia Tech student.
