I thought a rejection email after 4 months was a long time! Hang in there!
LabiaCrust
I got a letter declining me. At least I knew
CatsAndCoffeeAndCats
Fucking relevant
RenaissanceFaireMan
I'm sure they're still considering you for any future openings.
Chereazi
Maybe they are just shy, you should call them and offer them a job to break the ice
novokaine187
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha... so close to home.... hahahahahahahhahaha
woozle
ScottSteinerMaths
Sooooo... is anyone hiring?
LiteralVampirePotBellyGoblins
I'm still waiting, 5 years later, for the guy who laughed at my salary expectation to call back.
usernameczecksout
Be patient. These things take time.
theoneandonlyy2k
They're waiting to see if what he said about where he saw himself in 5 years is accurate

Call them and ask how you did in the interview. If they don't remember you, work on your skills.
shelltucker96
Went to high school with this kid and his twin, fucking hated them.
Appel99
In my entire life, only one place ever called me back to tell me I didn’t get the job. I told them thank you for letting me know.
DiscoPhysicist
I love it when the hiring manager emails me telling me they went with another candidate, then 3 moths I get the rejection email from HR.
MichaelDeGregory
It’s not you, it’s me
IAmSmartOnOccasion
Oof....heart in butthole. Interview went really well. Every few weeks they say 'will definitely call you in 'x' amount of days...2 months
theGrantimus
This go for USAJobs.gov too.

OP I love you. ????
SkeuomorphicallyInclined
Did you check your spam filter?
TharrickLawson
Yup. Interviewed 3 years ago for a job. Shortlist was me and one other guy. Never heard back. Fucking rude -_-

Was it a state job? I work for the state and I can tell you that the paperwork is almost done! Keep your hopes up.
SweetBabyJesus
it took me 2 months to get a second interview for my state job. Glad I was patient though, I'm here now watching netflix while on Imgur.

Basically living the dream then?

I got an email last Monday saying that my application will not be moving forward. I applied three years ago. It turns out that the position>
Was already filled but the application remained up until it was taken down on Monday. They probably sent lots of the exact email I got.
To clarify, the position was filled long before I put in my application.

I got a call from one of the places i sent an application to 9 months after i sent it to tell me the dates on the app were wrong...
Ibuyallmyclothesatcostco
Your grammar though.
imadethisaccounttotellyouthis
I got called 2 years later about a job I interviewed for in texas. I had moved to oregon. It wasn't even that good of a job. $10/hr retail.
conservativenightmare24
Grew up in Oregon and moved to Texas when I was 21 because of the shitty pay, high cost of living, and lack of opportunities.
TheLaughingCoffin
Wooh, sup fellow Oregon dweller
Moist, though slightly sunny today. I'm hosting an SCA reenactment event in April out near Stayton. Want to go? Site fee is 20 bucks, 3 days
I'm actually pretty close to Stayton!
LyraTheLycan
What's the season like over there
warick
It was sunny today, then it rained.
HideousMonkeyCrap
As a fellow Oregonian, I can confirm, at least for the Willamette Valley.
Willamette Valley! I'm in Monmouth
azazyel
It is really amazing the amount of shitty HR people out there. If you take time out of your life for an interview you deserve a response
ThePresidentOfStrayaOFFICIAL
If I spend more than four hours on a ridiculously involved application process the least HR could do is get in touch.
CyBercrook
The last place I sent my resume to sent me a free shirt that I already owned. I bought it through their website 2 years prior. No note or
anything explaining it. i checked my bank records thinking there was a mistake and that charged me for a second purchase
mirhagk
There's a window where they don't want to say no to you in case their first choice turns them down or doesn't work out. And that window 1/
Is too big for your comfort anyways. They still should, but getting an email a month later doesn't fix the issue
BananaForScaIe
See it's reciprocity. I get 800 applicants for a job with 5 years experience. 95% don't have it. So no. Done.
Yeah but how many do you interview?
I've never once had the right number of years of experience requested from a job. I've also almost always been offered the job
transference
I wish I could downvote you more than once. Those are human beings, and they wasted their time on whatever idiotic app process your co uses.
Exactly. Trying to find a job is a full-time job. And it’s a bloody demoralising process. HR rarely makes it any more pleasant.
zarkingphoton
You work in HR? Fuck you. Nobody likes you.
TraitorousTrump3
Key word: interviewed.
Slausher
Can’t expect hr people to know how to read now can you?
If you are one of 800 and copied and pasted? I don't owe you and 799 other people a response
gingertrain
Again, this says interviewed, meaning they have the basic skills you were looking for. This doesn't say all applicants.
Now go reread this thread to understand the downvotes.
ParrotOverlord
Ikr, I'm still waiting for them to call me, at least say me no. It's like uncertainty is killing me.
JudgeNotByTheColorOfOnesSkinButByTheContentsOfOnesDumps
In a "how to interview" class I took, they recommended sending thank you cards afterwards or a thank you email. Have you tried that?
FireFireSaidMrsMcGuire
Okay but what if an employer emails you about your availability for an interview, you respond, then a week later they still haven't emailed
back with a set interview time & date? That's where I'm at right now & I'm losing hope I'll ever even get an interview ughh
TheGist
"Hi____, last week we talked about having an interview for __. Is this opportunity still available?" But more eloquent.
Yesterday I emailed them again reiterating my availability. Timeline: they emailed, I emailed back same day, week later I emailed again.
