    Interviewing for a job vs friendly competitor

    Posted by: September1957

    I am about to go to an interview for a promotion as an impacted employee. The recently promoted HR Mgr happens to be very good friends with my competitor for the job.

    I expect that questions posed will be deliberate so that I perform poorly knowing that my competitor will either elaborate in the answers or know the answers.

    When asked, "Do I feel the questions or the interview was fair?" every bone in my body will want to say no.

    Please advise what I should do. Interview is tomorrow at 11am. If I say how I feel I will do away with any chances if any and if not, I would not be getting the job anyway.
