Or maybe there were other candidates that you didn't see.

No, there actually were not. He said he had 2 positions and 3 applicants.

I'm not sweating it. I have a job that's fine, I just wanted something different. I'll keep looking and hopefully USGS pans out. That's a great opportunity.

Reminds me of a friend of mine who used to do the hiring for a company...

It had little room for advancement, so he said he routinely chose inferior candidates because they were less likely to move on. Better candidates often were able to find superior jobs and would leave - necessitating additional hires and training.

From his company's perspective, it was more cost effective to hire people for whom the job would be a destination, not just a stepping stone. Seems plausible in this Whole Foods interview process.

Keep that positive attitude, bro! Hoping to hear good things soon.
