No reply from them after the phone interview, my gosh what should I do...
Dec 21, 2006
There are fair chances that if your are interviewed by a big-size or small-size company, they haven't responded yet. Most of the big sized companies are so very busy interviewing candidates for the same job that you are pursuing and forget your candidacy status. They are so lazy to track everybody and just track very promising candidates. So it is possible that someone has been hired in that position and has already started working! oh my gosh?? Don't worry, just think they don't deserve you or maybe it was not your destiny, something better is waiting in your way for you. I know it is very depressing but when companies don't respond to prospective employees it only means that they are not interested in pursuing you. Even if you call them up, they would be surprised to even hear your name as if they are hearing it for the first time. "Ma'am I am Mr. XYZ and was interviewed a couple of weeks ago. I haven't heard anything yet..." and you hear them "oh, OK really? oh my gosh I think we just got you slipped through, we are sorry. We would surely have a word for you before end of the day". And you sit with a relaxed mind that you will hear something by this evening. And you keep wondering and keep wondering your whole life, why? because they will never bother to contact you. Isn't that embarrassing?
So, after 3-4 weeks if you don't get any reply from the employer, don't sit there without doing nothing and hoping that someday they will contact you. NO! it will never happen because you contacted them to remind them, thats enough, if they were ever interested in pursuing you further, this reminder call was more than enough for them to take an action. So keep applying for other decent employers out there without the least bit of depression.
