I applied through LinkedIn and was contacted about a week later for an interview. When I scheduled it, I noticed the meeting was only 15 minutes, which immediately suggested it might not be a full traditional interview. During the call, the interviewer didn’t ask any questions—instead, he simply restated the job description and told me he was adding me to their A-list. Shortly afterward, I received an email that essentially confirmed I was now in their general candidate pool, similar to a temp-availability list. Based on the structure and brevity of the meeting, it felt more like they were meeting a quota of pre-screens than filling a specific role. If an actual job materializes quickly, I’d be surprised
