Need Feedback.
I was unemployed for 6 weeks after my contract assignment ended.
Interviewed for a new position and the hiring manager told me I was overly qualified and had more experience than she or her staff.
She then referred me for a management position and I had two more interviews. These are employee roles and not contract.
The second was a panel interview with 7 people and was informed there would be a third interview with the CEO.
I never received invite for the third interview. Instead I received an email offering me the position and was informed third interview not needed.
I was ecstatic and happy about the role. Several hours later I received another email stating they made a mistake and that offer was meant for someone else. ?
They then offered me the first position for which I was overqualified for.
When they sent me the offer letter it was addressed to someone else . They sent another email stating it was a typo and resent the email with my name on it.
I accepted it because I need the money. Unfortunately I am making $10 less per hour than my prior job.
The manager and the team are nice and I have been there 3 weeks now. Last week I learned I would be expected to work weekends on a rotating basis. I was only told on Saturdays not Saturday and Sunday.
I now have an interview this week that looks promising.
If offered the role I do plan to accept it and this will be the second interview .
How should I handle this with my current manager once an offer is recd? She was kind but all that has occurred to me in three weeks has left me feeling a certain kind of way….
I am not trying to burn any bridges.
