If you care about diversity, don't just hire from the same five schools 9 years ago

I had a similar experience interviewing at Wikia.

I was straight out of uni and the interview was a three-part, month-long process.

At the end, HR called me and gave me an offer, "welcome to the team" included and so on.

I was just told to wait a week for the CEO's formal approval, which was to be "standard procedure" for every new hire.

A week became two weeks, then another two weeks, then another. During that I was still assured the job was coming.

In the meantime, I found another job, a pretty good one.

A month later, I got a call from HR at Wikia saying that maybe I should start looking for a different job.

At the time it was a real disappointment for me, but it taught me to be never be sure until I'm holding the signed contract in my hand.
