possible they found another job, which happens all the time, and some Do cherry pick, maybe i choose this job, but i will just wait for the other jobs interview or something else comes up. or they chose and apply to this job as a backup until one comes up with a better offer.
I'm sure that's probably the case, but that's kind of my point.
Even if I landed another, better, job between my initial interview and my job shadow, I probably would have still shown up for the shadow because when else are you going to get a chance to peek behind the curtain like that?
I may not have pursued it any further from that, but to me being able to just show up and listen to 911 calls being handled for a bit would be too cool of an opportunity to pass up. I'm pretty sure I would have jumped at the opportunity to do that even if I wasn't trying to get hired.
But again, I'm biased, I work here and like my job so of course I think it's kind of neat.
its not like employers, dont keep track of flakers anyways, at least thier software will automatically deny people, they either denied, or flake on contacting the applicants.
