Didn’t get the internship but offered an additional meeting?
Throw away account, I recently interviewed for an internship at a record label. I didn’t end up getting the internship, but when they called me to deliver feedback, I was told everyone really liked me and they want to set me up a call with someone else in the company to give more career specific advice. They also encouraged me to continue applying to positions within the company as my skill set develops.
Basically I just want to know if this is a common thing that happens? Are they just being polite and helpful because it was quite a long interview process, and they want me to get something out of it? Or is this a possible sign that they may be interested in hiring me in the future? Some sources I’ve found online have even suggested that this could be an informal job interview of sorts.
Basically I’m just trying to figure out how the label may be viewing this meeting so I can prepaid myself adequately. Any insight or advice appreciated :)
