Didn't get to discuss my qualifications because they decided to edit the job posting after I applied to include a requirement for driver's license and vehicle (which I don't have). This requirement wasn't there when I sent my application, so I got a phone call to discuss my qualifications but was immediately dismissed upon learning I didn't have a driver's license. Very disappointing experience and I wish they made their requirements clear from the start to avoid this.
