**djchris** · 14-02-2007, 11:43 PM

Are you that good? They'll wait only if they cannot find another interviewee of your standard.

**wangzi<3** · 14-02-2007, 11:55 PM

erm.. not really..

**xueren** · 15-02-2007, 12:12 AM

lets say..a company knows u can only work in may..but still ask u for interview now..meaning they can accept u and wait right?

**Yoko** · 15-02-2007, 12:17 AM

government jobs/employment does allow that, especially uniform group.

**djchris** · 15-02-2007, 12:18 AM

it just means they want to interview you...i suggest you just go for the interview first. if they are impressed by you, they may just wait for you.

International schools, for example, normally recruit around February to March for an academic year that begins in September, so it's possible. Industries that do so are not a lot though.
