Interview Related-kind of weird

I have two interviews tomorrow. I was checking the companies out on the web tonight and as it turns out one is the parent company to the other. They are down the block from one another. I spoke to different people so far about the two posistions. How weird is that? I was thinking of rescheduling the second one. I think that would be kind of awkard to go to both. Anyone thoughts?

Not weird at all.

We were recently spun off, but prior to that our parent company was down the road and had a totally different HR team, recruiting process, etc.

Happened to us all the time that we would be recruiting from the same pool.

Since our cultures were very different, it ultimately came down to which environment the candidate liked more.

I would just mention to both that you are interviewing at the other.

Good luck!!

thanks!

I wouldn't cancel. I don't think it's strange. I wouldn't mention it unless it came up - only because if you had 2 job offers, you could negotiate for a higer salary.

Re: Interview Related-kind of weird

ok thanks for the advice. I was a little nervous but I am glad to hear it is okay.

Good luck tomorrow! Sorry to give you conflicting advice on it in terms of telling them/not telling them.
