I'm Sorry, I Was Thinking Of Someone Else For The Job, But Give It Your Best Shot

I swear, I don't make these things up.  Honest.

Imagine being interviewed for a position on the phone.  No, not a pre-liminary interview, or a follow up secondary interview, but THE interview.  Then imagine the person interviewing you saying that he had already decided on who was getting the job, and it wasn't you, but went on with the interview anyway.

Well, it happened here in town, not once, but twice, when Town Administrator Shaun Suhoski was interviewing candidates on the telephone for an opening on the Planning Board.

"I'm sorry I didn't handle that properly", Suhoski reportedly stated.

Hmm.  Ya think?

  1. As I told the BOS, no problem with the apointee, but big problems with the process.
    Hopefully by airing it in the public it won't happen to anyone else.

  2. Hopefully not, Ginger. Thanks for "airing it".

  3. One might wonder how the appointee, Charles Blanchard, managed to be selected ahead of all other interviewees, even though all were equally qualified. Hmmm?? Special friends, special favors?
