You give the packet to a new hire, not an interviewee. My guess is that he liked you, but got nixed by some corporate goon higher up the ladder. They should have had the decency to let you know something. If nothing else, it shows that the company is dysfunctional at the entry/hiring level, and that probably gives an indication of what the rest of the company is like. Don't give up girl. You have a lot to offer, and somewhere is the perfect job. xoCathy Tittlehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02829421153829081513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4955247165501429698.post-29889036663771427172012-08-02T13:55:19.439-04:002012-08-02T13:55:19.439-04:00It could be, who knows.

After all the schmoozing about not conduction the interview in the traditional way and just lets talk like we are old friends (this is quite a tricky technique as we tend to become far more revealing in a "normal" conversation) you are left hanging. I am outraged at this behaviour but it has become standard these days. It would have been nothing more than polite of them to let you know where you stand.<br>Dammit, use the energy gained from anger to find new opportunities!Barbarahttp://www.late-bloomers.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4955247165501429698.post-65747555593713275162012-07-27T05:15:50.255-04:002012-07-27T05:15:50.255-04:00The waiting is so annoying.

Just like you patience is not my forte.<br>Just keep sending resumes...As for me, I got so tired of Corporate politics that I ended up setting up my own business.

I was so excited that it was obvious and the interviewer said the same thing "I hate formal interviews, let's just talk" And we had this amazing conversation for about an hour, about psychology, India, migration, writing, books - (in my head, it was almost like a great first date without the flirting obviously) and the interviewer said he liked my profile and he will definitely get back, just fill a few forms; and then... nothing, zilch. I can't move on because it was the perfect job!Hajrahttp://hajrakvetches.comnoreply@blogger.com
