Got an email out of the blue: want to apply for this job?
Me: Sure
Them: We went with an internal candidate
Fine. Went to their website, saw the job still posted, applied for it.
Got an email saying they weren't interested.
Got another email asking me to schedule an interview.
I'm scheduled, but I don't know if they'll be there.
