Subject: RE: phone interviews
I would go further and say that there may be some ethical
issues involved here. The true conditions and the full
agenda of the interview weren't being disclosed.
I'm not up to snuff on my employment and interview
legalese, but I do see some professional courtesy
issues with that. Really, why the secrecy?
Interviewing with multiple people is normal and should
be disclosed.
