I went on a group interview tonight for Office Manager for a chiro's office. He said in 2 days he got 70 emails. He sent out a questionairre first and application. Based on those he narrowed it down to 30..On the way home I got an email from him requesting a one on one interview. He stated he will only request a few second interviews. It's just brutal out there
