American Eagle to hire

There's no way they would have been able to process your background that quickly in my opinion. Sounds like you were just one of the unfortunate ones that got caught in that whole whirlwind. The folks in HR weren't even told anything until THE day AE announced the parking of the SAAB's and the stuff hit the fan.

I know you're getting antsy, but just sit and chill. Hopefully you've applied for others. Stuff happens man. Be aware of HR folks on these boards. I don't know if they are able to figure out who you are, but just be careful. You will hear something from us soon enough. There's only a few folks in recruiting right now and they still have a long way to go.

Thanks. I was interviewed by a company out out of CVG in July of 08 (bet you can't guess who that is) only to basically have the same thing happen. I'm sure hiring folks monitor these boards (I would if I were in their shoes.) I would be comfortable with them reading my posts. If they wanted to know who I was it wouldn't be too hard for them to figure out . They know where I live, basically my age and the exact days I interviewed in the past so it would be easy for them to connect the dots and I'm OK with that. I'm looking forward to the call.

Agreed about internal recommendations. They help, but they don't guarantee. The most common use of one works this way: A Recruiting employee receives a recommendation on an application. The employee goes through the pile of 500 applications, digs out the person named in the recommendation and guess where that file goes? Yep, right on top of the pile. Now, when the same person or another starts processing files for interview scheduling, where do you think they draw from? Yep, right off the top of the pile.
This is the reason why it's best to send in a recommendation a day or two after the interview and another a week later. It keeps the applicant's file near the top if the pile.
