S/He was invited for interview approximately 25% of the time. The jobseeker finally reached the advanced stage in a recruitment and selection process, was the preferred candidate and had been invited to visit the operational site at which s/he was to work. While on site, it was announced that the operational site was to be sold. Recruitment for the advertised position was abandoned.
