When would you expect to hear?

[overitz]

I've applied for a job at a local college - just an administration role. The published interview date is for Tuesday the 10th and the job closed at midnight.

When would you expect to hear if youve got an interview in this situation?

Within about 3 weeks id say is typical

Interview on 10th - that's next week

If the interview is next Tuesday, I’d expect to hear by the end of Friday this week if they wanted to interview me. They’ll have had a huge number of applications so will need at least a day to shortlist. If you’ve not heard by Friday I’d assume you won’t get an interview.

Thank you! I thought Friday but im also inpatient 😂 although theres another job at the college that I want slightly more (and on paper would be an incredibly strong candidate for) but both jobs would be amazing. Im keeping everything crossed

Have you applied for both jobs?
All the best of luck to you!

I've only applied for 1 so far - the one that closed at midnight. I haven't seen either job on indeed and only found it by chance after looking at the college directly so did a last minute panicked application 😅 the second one ill submit tomorrow after ive changed my cv etc to better reflect that specific role. Luckily the admin roles abit more general so my normal cv worked well

Got an interview 🥳

Ah well done! Good luck!

By Friday this week the latest.

I didn't see the other posts, clearly!
Well done and good luck 🍀

I've never interviewed directly with a college before (my education experience is from EBPs) is it normal to need to bring all your documents to interview?

Yes, very common to bring all your documents with you. Best of luck!

One last follow up question 😂 (sorry can you tell im really nervous!)

I was planning on wearing this skirt, with a black jumper and boots, would I be ok?

What kind of boots? X

I have Chelsea boots, or chucky soled boots that are a little longer or knee high (all black)

The interview got cancelled 10 minutes after the time it was supposed to start (its not their fault but it feels really shit 😂)

Yes it's the norm in schools.too

Oh no, have they rearranged it? Perhaps it being delayed will work out positively and give you the chance to see if you will get an interview for the other role that you prefer

I got rejected for the second job - but tbh I had a feeling they were going to look for someone with more industry experience then actual role experience (it was a placement coordinator for construction)

They haven't rebooked today but did say they'd be in touch, they got a phone call this morning to say that they were having a care standards inspection today so completely appreciate that it was out of their control and that needs to come first.
