so in regards to my spellcheck resume person, so I had someone we really liked for the role. I left on travel after their stellar interview and since I wasn't doing the hiring, someone else was supposed to put out the offer - and quickly. They ended up dragging their feet and person took another offer. Just great. They schedule more interviews, including with people who I would never look at and ignored my schedule. FYI, this is for my old position and I'd be doing the training - but not managing them. I had posed the question about a month ago that I should manage them. Was told no for now at that time.
So then we went back to first person and offered anyway. They debated taking it and in the meantime it was determined that it made more sense for me to manage them if I was ok with that. Partially because of the bungling of the good person, partially because it just made sense (like I tried to say previously) I said yes. Good person stuck with original offer mostly out of integrity. They're young and will probably eventually learn that loyalty to a company gets you ****.
But anyway, now I'm the hiring manager on this role with people scheduled I don't want and lost the one I did want because of someone else. And there's no one nearly as good in the resume stack I have. I suppose this is what management is. Cleaning up messes I didn't cause and getting to deal with other people's mistakes.
oh and btw, I found yet another spelling error when going back over that particular resume.
