I conducted a phone interview with an IT recruiter from the San Francisco corporate office and a second interview was to be scheduled with staff at the data center. The following day the job was re-posted (same title, same job number), which I thought was odd. I receive email updates whenever a job in my profession becomes available, which is how I found out the job was re-posted. The following Saturday, I received a call from the recruiter saying that she omitted some information about the position and to let her know if I wanted to cancel the interviews scheduled for Monday. I thought this was odd and it seemed as though she wanted to cancel the interviews (as if she made a mistake in moving me forward). On Monday, I interviewed with 5 people from the IT department. The two managers who interviewed me asked about my experience, background and questions relevant to the position. The other three employees asked some rather strange questions - i.e. "What 4 ingredients would you use to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich" and "Which would you rather have - orange Cheetos fingers for life or a popcorn kernel stuck in the back of your throat?" I was informed that "looking at your resume, it is obvious that you have the skills for the position. We just want to see if you fit in." The employees were nice and since I was assured that I met the qualifications for the job, I assumed that this interview was just a formality. After a week, I received notice that they were moving forward with "other candidates who more closely fit the position." I was disappointed at first but since I see this job advertised about every 6 months, it makes me wonder why they are not able to retain people for this job.

I only got into one interview and it was with two managers. One was the manager for the IT department, and I believe the other to be HR. It went ok, I didnt get the position because of my lack of expertise at the time.
