history: I was hoping to get an interview for a position and was told I would at least get that chance.  However, the recruiter didnt look at any internal candidates and by the time it was reported they had already hired someone from the outside. I was hoping to get an interview for a higher position and was told I would get that at least.  However_comma_ the recruiter didnt look at internal candidates and by the time it was reported they had hired someone from the outside. Aw what a sham! Did they give any reason why they hired from the outside?
current: My boss said the recruiter is an idiot and just never looked at internal candidates. It was a bummer but I figure I'll look for something else in the company soon
next: Well that's a good attitude to have. I don't blame you for being mad. I would be.
