So this topic is for all the staff applicants who did not make it. PM an admin or headstaff asking why you were not hired. If you would like to make it public, just post it in here so we can discuss it.

Here is mine:

So, we're supposed to PM someone to tell us why we weren't hired. I'd like to know please and if you could also go ahead and make it public, that'd be nice.

Haha, what do you mean by make it public?
Where?

You can make it public yourself I guess...

Here are some quotes

really don't think Elba always 'being herself' is an asset at the moment. The fact that she's always complaining about Diana is really not helping her since she isn't being positive about it.

Wow. What's all that about? I was actually considering Elba as one of the choices, but nevermind. I don't think she's such a good idea anymore. I'm not sure why so many people that were inactive and just came back for a few weeks or the people who were the troublemakers decide to apply for staff.

f I could choose from the three, I think Elba is most suited to be a moderator if you look past her many "crimes" (member bashing, hacking, spamming and a great interest in Backstage)... But the problem is, who's to say she is really trustworthy?

I'm not going to get into the whole Elba situation, but I do feel that if she can't respect the staff, how will she represent us in a good light? I understand that people say she'd be a breath of fresh air, but aren't there other people who would be a breath of fresh air who don't have such negativity towards the staff? She's gotten into trouble... and I understand that shouldn't bias opinions about her, but I think the fact of how recent it is should.

Basically, the conflicts between you and Diana, and what was assumed to be disrespect towards the staff members. My only issue with that is Spencer did the same thing, yet they hired him. If you want to know why I am saying "they", it's because I didn't agree with a lot of decisions that were made.

I hope that helps.

Thank you James.

She's had too many chances
^Reminding me of my boyfriend.

Rachel, I thought you were more qualified than the three of us (Spencer, Sandra and I).

Oh, and here's my positive:

I'd rather give Elba a chance than him if it came to choosing. At least she's funny occasionally.

When I look at the big picture, I see her being pretty decent when actually on staff, and doing a lot to calm down the bias accusations.

Im willing to work will elba if she can work with me...

I think we should hire Elba, based on the fact that it would be a really good way to dispell the whole 'bias' thing we have going on. No, it isn't the ideal way to select a candidate, but I think it is a good idea to have someone on staff who maybe 'represents' that little group a bit better than maybe the current staff do. I see why people have those concerns about Elba, and I think they're valid. But I think that she is fundamentally a good person, and would do well in discussions backstage, and in trying to mend the divide between members and mods.

Like I said, breath of fresh air. Which I think is what we need

Elba? My oh my. The girl is funny, intelligent and does bring an element of 'life' to the boards.

I like Elba and her interview. She definately makes the room brighter (is that the phrase?) I think it would be nice having her on the staff. Shes respected by a lot of people and she'll certainly be fun. I like how shes honest with the negative questions
