DH applied for a job with who we'll call company A. He had close relations whilst he worked for company B with company A and knew most of the relevant department there, in fact, his direct boss at company B has a Daughter in Law at Company A.
He was made redundant from company B 2 years ago and started working for company C
(I appreciate this is complicated )
As I say he applied for a job with A and interviews are I believe next week. Without wishing to be big headed he was a bit surprised not to have heard anything about the job but moved on. Last night he had a phone call from his old, now retired boss at company B. Boss told him his DIL had been round, mentioned the job and mentioned that someone from his old department had submitted 'the best application and CV the department had ever seen'. Boss then asks DH when the interview is.
DH has heard nothing from the company. He's checked all his emails and spam filters and we've had no post. There was only 3 people in the department (department no longer exists), Boss, DH and another lad who DH has called this morning who's confirmed he's not applied for the job.
Boss' DIL couldn't remember the name of the candidate helpfully.
I suggested DH contact company A, say perhaps he's had his email hacked and apologise if anyone has been trying to get in touch. He says no, this is bad form.
What do we do!? DH already has ex boss getting DIL on the case, but should he just bite the bullet and call them?
