I Do Not Believe It
« on: 05 March 2010, 16:43:44 »
I've just had a guy ring me offering me a job that i sent my CV off for a few weeks ago ;D ;D ;D ;D ;D

Five months of nothing, but " Due to the over whelming response, you have not been successful with your application".

I am completely gob smacked.........

I think there is a bit of confidence in the market at the moment.  Even we are not getting rid of as many people as before :o

I could do with a bit of that right now.

It seems HR depts. don't even bother to acknowledge when you respond to an advert they place these days.  Downright rude in my book.  If I was applying speculatively it would be different.  >:(

PS. Congrats BTW!  :)

I believe the problem is they have quite a few hundred applications just for one position & so to reply to everyone (especally by post or phone) would be a nightmare.
I have lost count how many CV's i have sent out via e-mail & post. but only hear nothing.
I must say that it is very disheartening to not get a reply, but you have to just keep at it.
It's taken me five months >:( Bloody worth it though :y :y :y :y :y :y

No - I have been working, but our company has not had many orders compared to normal.

If we don't sell any systems what will pay our wages?
