[quote=deadzone][quote=David J]My interview was July, 2008 (still have all the email correspondence). I was deployed to Iraq for well over a year and got back home in July of 2007. At that time, for my specialty, it was very common to be deployed again shortly after returning and I would constantly get warnings that my name was on a deployment list.

As soon as I got back the company I worked at while I was deployed just made everything so difficult. The company was based out of Los Angeles.[/quote]

It sounds like they were maybe just trying to makes excuses not to hire you. The real reason is most likely for fear of you being mobilized. The whole politics argument is non-sense, still unbelievable they would admit that to you.[/quote]

She didn’t need to make any excuse aside from saying, “we’ll let you know one way or other what we decide.” This was at the end of my last interview of the day and she just voluntarily told me this. It isn’t like I had asked her when I start or anything; it was completely out of the blue.
