Man eff this job search **%%%%%+, but I guess it's all "part of the system."
BTW, whenever I've been rejected after interviews, I'm always told that they'll hold onto my resume for the future blah blah blah. Has anyone actually been contacted afterward for this reason or is this just standard etiquette bs?

Wait till tomorrow...if you don't hear anything this week, give em a call early next week and ask about the status...Originally Posted by krazy88s
Need some help/advice bros. I got call back on Monday (first in 6 months) from a job I applied for. They gave a quick interview over the phone and the HR lady said the HR Director would contact me later in the week to set-up a face-to-face interview.
I haven't heard anything yet and tomorrow is Friday. Should I contact them or wait until they call?
Feels like I'm walking on eggshells here.

Got involved with 2 fraternities
Never had a summer off in college, either worked or had summer classes
Held a full academic scholarship while in school
Resume is written well (career services told me so, also has been critiqued by actual employers and been told its good)
My interviewing is good (career services confirmed this with mock interviews, I always get past at least the first round with employers)
Got interviews through school, through network, and through online applications
Have references which are great, including past supervisors
Upheld a 3.45 GPA
.......
7 months and over 20 interviews later, i still have no job
I'm on the verge of punching someone in the face the next time they try to play me off
they give me the run around consistently, and when i ask for feedback as to why i didn't get the job they always say things like overqualified or they just decided to go with a better candidate.
Not that I'm sour or anything, but it seems like alot of times employers hire people that are completely incompetent compared to others that they turned down. Sometimes they hire the right person, but they screw up pretty often. Especially when you see the dumb broad that retook marketing twice get hired over someone who is smarter and just as outgoing.

damn dawg thats a long time and i cant say i know completed u how u feel but I will say I know u feeling like you did erything right, erything they told you u should do so that u could secure a job and you keep coming up empty handed...I know thats how I feel, and it blows!!!
All we looking for is the opportunity! Give me the opportunity and ill prove to you im more than capable to handle the job with little to no supervision and be efficient as hell!
but they dont give two #$%# they gonna hire the person that knew somebody that knew sumbody more important than the person you knew(if you are even lucky enough to know someone or they gonna hire the person with the tons of experience doing the exact job that you are trying to gain experience in.
Whoa, this exactly sounds like my situation.Originally Posted by Fadeaway88

I live at home now, going through interviews and spending all day trying to get interviews, with a little basketball and video games inbetween to keep me sane. Every now and then I go out to talk to girls, but getting a job and getting money is my top priority.
This job search has caused me to lose all interest in women (not meant in a gay way), but they cost too much time and money to tend to. I'm 100% focused on getting a job, but it feels like theres no light at the end of the tunnel almost.

I gave them a perfect interview, I stumbled on one question, the lady told me I gave a good interview, and then I didn't get passed onto the final round. I went through 2 or 3 rounds I think.
