Job Question

I had interviewed with a company months back, got to the final round, but was informed they were no longer moving forward with the position.
I recently started a job, 2 months ago. Not what I want as a career, but good for right now.
The company I had interviewed back when called me out of the blue Friday, and informed me they wanted me to come back for another position. It is a dream career opportunity.
Should I mention the company I am working for now in the interview? Don't want to seem like a job-jumper or someone who is always looking for something else. Any thoughts or advice?

Be honest. If they find out you lied in an interviewed you can kiss any chance of it goodbye. Believe it or not your reputation follows you everywhere these days.

I agree, will let them know I was not looking for a job, but because they reached out to me I wanted to give it a shot. It is a company I can see myself building a career in.

From my own personal experience I have found that companies don't really care about your switching companies a lot. Especially if they are seeking you out for your skillset. It's just a different world than it was even 10 years ago.

And pray that the person interviewing doesn't know what an actual recession is either, and call you on it.
