Is this normal? Applied for a govt job and they offered me something completely different
I applied for a contract job at one of the government offices in a certain field and they gave me an offer at the place but for a completely unrelated field after one interview, without any communication on doing so. For example, if I were in medicine, it's like being a face doctor and they gave me a job in podiatry. Is this normal? I assumed if I apply to job X and I'm told I have an offer, that it would be for job X.

You were likely merit listed, it happens.
what does merit listed mean?
Merit listing is where a candidate is suitable for a role but maybe lost out this time, its so there is a pool of suitable candidates who don’t necessarily need to be interviewed again.
It saves a lot of time and money in the recruitment process.
