Awkward decision...what would you do?

[sunnydays]

They both know that I am full...they are coming to interview anyway in case something opens up...I have told them that if something becomes available then I would be in a position to offer them a space right away if I feel they are a good fit. I had another one come a week ago. I am not even advertising actively anymore...filled all the space a few weeks back, but I am still getting contacted and that is what is leading me to second guess. I really didn't know the demand would be so high!

When I am interviewing for a 'SINGLE/LAST' space I personally I do not 'commit' to anyone until I am done interviewing all my prospects ~ I tell each of them during the process that I am interviewing until X date and than will be making my final decision on based on the best match for the program ~ if I am their 'first choice' please let me know so I can keep that in mind during the process! If for some reason a client comes along whom I know is PERFECT and I want to sign them on even though I have other interviews lined up than I offer them the spot and if they accept, sign the contract and pay the deposit than I call and 'cancel' the other interviews rather than waste their time and mine interviewing for a space that no longer exists anyway and this ensures I avoid putting myself in the place of second guessing my choice if one of them seems even 'more perfect' in hindsight.

Personally if you no longer have a spot for the interviews you have booked I would call and let them know that so they can decide if they want to come tour still ~ I would not have them come assuming that they have a chance of coming to your program if they do not cause well IMO that's bad karma
