I had a phone interview followed by an in person interview. great meeting with Director and Manager. Background and drug test performed, heard nothing back. When I followed up, this was the reply: "Thank you for your email. Regret to inform that we have selected another candidate for this open position." This would have been thumbs up, even without offer, had they gotten back to me after all the checks. They seemed interested, but concerned about salary.

It was a phone interview; casual and only lasted about 15 minutes. The interview was mostly to see if I had a real interest in the position as it was apparent the hiring manager was ready to make the offer.
