I applied for a service advisor position at an independent auto repair shop on April 27. Yesterday at 6 PM, I received a message on Indeed from the owner inviting me for an interview. Since it was after business hours, I decided to wait until this morning to call back. Unfortunately, when I did, he was busy, so I left my name and number. Two hours later, he called to inform me that they had already hired someone that morning. I can't believe how quickly this happened. I've been unemployed for a year and a half, and this is just another example of the frustrating job search process I've been experiencing. I've either received no responses, been ghosted, or faced situations like this. It's really disheartening, and I'm starting to feel like giving up.
