“Applied for permanent role after secondment”
What Actually Happened
Felt like I did well, but was unsuccessful in getting permanent role. An external hire was brought in for the role I was covering, and the returning employee took a part-time role I'd mentioned.
What I wish I knew
"More transparency about the hiring process and the decision to bring in an external hire"
Advice to Someone Facing This Now
If I could tell you one thing
"Be prepared for a lack of transparency in the hiring process and don't be afraid to speak up about your concerns"
