Interview
First I had a phone screen from the contract HR company. Questions were largely what I already answered online plus a few behavioral ones. This person could not answer any questions about the position. I then had an interview with the hiring manager about my previous experience and interest in the position. I learned of my application status by logging into the Honeywell web site myself. No email or contact was made to tell me they filled the position with another candidate.

I was wondering if there was an internal candidate why waste an outside candidate’s time if you’re though process is transfer an internal experienced technician into that slot. A month later I received an email asking if I was still interested in working for Honeywell. I was looking for career advancement so I accept the offer.

My manager said hey Honeywell is always laying people off or they are leaving (which is very true) so go to a pawn shop and purchase some tools. There is not a pawn shop anyplace close to that campus, another flat out lie from this manager.
Then I found out from my coworkers that I was the only candidate for the position, there was no other person. I had this gut feeling I made a mistake,
