Application in 'Hiring manager reviewing' state without interview
I applied for a language role this morning and immediately received an email saying I need to take an interview to complete my application. I stepped out of the house and came back 20 minutes later to find another email titled 'Great work on your interview' telling me my application is now being reviewed by the hiring manager. The dashboard is also showing the 'Hiring manager reviewing' status...although I hadn't taken the interview.
Could it be because I applied for a similar role (a language specialist role) several months ago and took an interview then? (I didn't get the role in the end)
Interestingly, this morning I had received an email from someone whose email address has the 'micro1.io' domain urging me to apply for this role and mentioning they are 'moving quickly to fill these roles'. I wasn't sure if it was legit, so instead of using the link in the email, I went and found the role directly on the micro1 website.
Should I just see what happens? Or should I still take the interview?
