Thanks!
nope. its just basically to intro you to your workplace and see if you are ok with the environment. it also gives the boss a final chance to choose between the final candidates and chitchat with you abt the actual job scope.

the intent is for you to see if you are willing to work/travel in this environment and ok with the job scope and potentially meet some of your colleagues. As the hiring process takes up to 3-6 months, the policy is to let candidates see for themselves, instead of quitting within months.

for me, i was quite anxious abt getting the job and i just bluntly asked my boss how many candidates are there. Once she told me i was the only one, i accepted the job thru the boss on the day itself after i reach home. i texted her. few days later, HR called and gave me the verbal offer, pending medical and security clearance.

im lucky to have a honest and direct boss, even though i did not know her then.

im also a blunt person who was already 6 months out of work. so i just asked if i was first choice also. but dont take my advice!

I was asked to go for site visit where my potential boss told me straight up that they want to hire me. After tt i was asked to go for security vetting, and when I asked HR they told me they are still pending the unit for list of selected applicants. Am I screwed?
