only if they're reconsidering...

I don't think so, there is a group opening, and they were interviewing the others, it was much simpler interview then the first go around.

Not really. I've had an initial interview from HR, but then an interview with a supervisor before they decided I could stay.

it's weird. they shouldn't offer unless it is certain. of course, if it isn't in writing, it might as well have never happened

maybe they have to do it by their rules

yeah, there's always the possibility they are going through the motions so some other sucker thinks they have a shot at it
