So last week you may have read my posts about the job interviews I went for. Well neither of them called me back
I emailed the one who was supposed to call me on Thursday, but nothing!

I'm really sorry.
That's happened to me a few times too. Sometimes they just get swamped, sometimes they are just insensative. I found that applying to other jobs made me feel better.

Good luck!

I'm sorry.......and i totally know what you're going through...its happened to me about a trillion times....

Don't worry hang in there...and eventually you will get the job you want....

as a side note:..I read in your other post about looking for jobs that you were applying for clerical jobs, and i was curious if you were still doing the Vet Tech gig.....I only ask because i know the burn out rate on Teching is very high......My professors make that point every class

Are you studying to be a tech? I am not teching at the moment. I injured my back and have to take some time off. I may need surgery!

I hate it when that happens, so sorry for you. I also think it's kinda rude to not send you a "thank you for your interest, we regret to inform..." -message, at least if there haven't been dozens of candidates to contact.

There is something out there for you, I am sure. Just don't lose heart yet - it is still early days. But it is hard when they don't call back.

Ok here is what the man from the job I really want had to say when I emailed him thanking him for the interview etc.
"Sure. Thanks for the follow-up. We will keep you in the loop."
WHAT DOES THAT MEAN????

Around here it means weve filled the opening why are you calling... In more cultured areas it means thank you for calling I will pass it along and well call you if something is avail..

We were hiring here once and it took us about a good 2 weeks to decide, we had a lot of applicants and it took a long time to go through all of them, I really hope that you get a call back soon, good things will happen!
