Obviously they don't thing she's unqualified. Good job training her to be a manager ...

You usually don't "interview" for promotions within your own firm. Her performance reviews must have been solid and showed that she was ready to be promoted. But, talking down to people is never cool.

Gotta love when unqualified people get promoted and they don't know anything. She will probably crash and burn all on her own.

Hey All,
I finished a third round interview, and HR contacted me that afternoon saying I had positive feedback across the board and they would contact me the next day regarding next steps. It’s been two days and they finally get back to me saying they haven’t been able to sync with the hiring manager but will keep me posted. Honestly I wish they would talk with the hiring manager and then let me know the decision instead of checking in. It’s messing with my emotions.

Feel like audit scheduling is always done on a knifes edge in that the timeline and staff schedules are enough so that if everyone works 60 hour weeks and no issues are identified then it can be filed on time. But even small things that increase the work can wildly throw off the schedule and cause hours to skyrocket for the staff on the job. No real point here, just ranting.
