[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Continuing... it's an objective sounding way of saying "in the end we decided to bet on the other horse and tenure was the tipping point."
I do not think they necessarily wasted your time and knew all along. That's understandably hurt feelings talking. 
The feedback to take and use is next interview wherever remember you may look like a job hopper so proactively head that off at the pass.
And unless this is the only place that could ever hire you try looking elsewhere. [/quote]
I feel like these replies, while correct in any other context, miss that she addressed it with the hiring manager who still told her to apply.[/quote]

But at that point they had not yet met the winning candidate. So it was NOT a disqualifying thing. BUT the other candidate was better and one objective difference it was safe and quantifiable to mention was tenure. Things like smarter, better educated, more applicable experience, leadership qualities...these all open a rat's nest.

OP might have gotten the job if not for who else was in the finalist pool. OP needs to get over "being invited to apply." It wasn't a binding promise of being selected. [/quote]
