[quote=Anonymous]I am applying for an internal position which is vacant because that person has been promoted. The person promoted is very close friends with someone else who is applying for the job and will surely plug, and perhaps even lie, for the friend as much as possible. The catch is I used to work with all of them and the promoted person is likely to diminish my work in efforts to plug her friend. (She has done it before.) I have applied and am likely to get an interview. Is there anything I can say? I can't think of anything that doesn't make me look bad but I am just hoping for a fair shot. (Yet if I say I just want a fair shot, it may make the hiring managers think I'm implying they don't give fair shots.)[/quote]
