Rejection response----"thank you"
Next!
Rejection response - Congratulations !
Sorry to hear that. I hope you found better!
I’m 52 and I’ve never been offered a job that I sent a follow up email to. I’m sure it works for some people, but I feel like it’s bad luck for me. I also feel like the interviewers are never really basing their decision on how you interviewed. They just bring you in to make sure you don’t look homeless, and that you can present yourself well. Most people can do that with ease. The questions are just a time wasting formality. At the end of the day, they don’t want anybody too skilled or too ambitious because those people are competition for the hiring manager, and sadly companies have huge egos!
To be honest with you, if you haven’t heard back within a reasonable time, please walk away. Start applying elsewhere. There are other companies that will call you back if they really want to hire you.
What do you consider reasonable amount of time?
There’s really no right time frame for an employee to get back to you with a job offer. In my experience, if you don’t hear within a few days to a week, start applying elsewhere. There’s always a company that is willing to hire you without having to wait and jump through hoops.
it does not always mean that. Sometimes the hiring process take up to a month, then you will be surprised with a job offer or a final interview. But that does not mean to stop applying else where, we need to apply everywhere until we land a job, regardless of any other job application.
Good companies will always follow up with you shortly after the interview if they're serious about extending an offer to you. Do you really want to work for a company that takes a month to get in contact with you ? I sure wouldn't.
@@genew5758 i agree with you, but if you do not have any choice and you were offered a good offer, i am sure you will take it.
What I mean, you applied for multiple job interviews, and you should get in touch with them ad long as they did not reject you. Banks and big investment firms takes month sometimes which is really frustrated, they need to find the best if the best candidate with lowest wage. Really no comment and nothing we can do. I have been applying for many jobs and still waiting for many of them, even i still work in a company that I do not like.
Thank you Madeline! After i sent my follow up E-Mail, i got the job! And little tips for me, dont forget to write down your phone number as well after the signature, so the HR can directly contact you. Thank you once again Madeline 💚
Fadil Fadilla congratulations!!! You rock! Great tip as well!
Hi Dian- did you get the job coach from her
I would like to thank you. I watched a bunch of your videos before the interview and guess what, I got the job!!! Your videos have a great energy, good examples, aren't boring, and there's no waffle. Very helpful. Thank you!
Way to go!!!!
I got the job!!! I've been following your channel for months and I found my dream job! My last interview was amazing and now I'm working for a company that I truly respect and I can be myself.
Thank you for wisdom and your wonderful advice! I love your personality, channel and all of your puns! 😁❤ I am so excited for my first day!!
Congratulations
Hey so I am still at my job and I've been promoted. And no, it's no longer my "dream job", but it's helped me tremendously to expand my skillset and I'm ready to move on to something I'm more passionate about. I made a major career jump two years ago so that was a big deal at the time. And no, I definitely don't hate it. It's just not the job for me. Sometimes careers and finding your "dream job" is unfortunately a lot of trial and error. I'm grateful for this channel for helping me to be better at interviewing and for giving me the confidence I need! 🙏
@@wza223-fo3mc that's not very nice to assume. You no absolutely nothing about my life or my career.
Sounds like the last one who sent the lovely email still didn’t get the job ha
So? Nothing guarantees getting a job, because you compete with other candidates that might be even better than you. The question is 'How do I maximize my chances?' Therefore, she did the right thing.
True, but she eventually was able to get a job at that company because she left such a great impression - a big contrast to the rejected candidate who kept spamming with emails begging for another chance. Sounds like this could be a good move when talking with a company that you would still be open to working at in the future even if you don’t get a job there right now.
Good advice, but the thing is I’ve had more interest from companies when I acted like I wasn’t interested. Why? Is it the same hard to get mentality that teenagers do with dating?
Omy God thank you so much. I'm a teenager and If I hadn't seen this video, I wouldn't have thought of calling McDonald's back, and now after I called them, they called me and asked me to bring proofs of my identity tomorrow! ❤️❤️ thank you! That was my first job interview too!
Great to hear it!
Following up that much will get you blocked.
@@dhenderson1810she lying! I will say nope to any candidate that followed up with me that often.
Just came back here to give a quick testimony-I followed your examples listed (especially the tip of giving the interviewer an article or resource they may find interesting) and they got back to me with a job offer; the main interviewer even quoted that they really appreciated one of the articles that I sent to her. Thanks for your help! ♥
Following up after an interview is bullshit! The ball should be in their court to get back to the candidate at that point. No job, especially a minimum wage job, should be worth that much effort to get!
generally, it's useless to follow up so many times
the hiring manager knows when will come back to the candidate he/she wants to hire
some of these videos are useful, but some of them are garbage
If somebody would email me every 24 hours, not only that Id not hire them, Id ghost them for the rest of my life LoL
Hi Madeline! I binged watched many of your interviews the night before my first interview! I then made it to the second interview and now I have gotten the internship which over 150 applied for! Thank you so much for your interview tips they helped me so much!!!!
Wow congrats!! Glad to help
Congrats!
Me too😅
I suggest all job hunters also check their spam or junk email folders often. Sometimes your incoming email might get put in the spam folder.
The employer may also be wasting your time for their own selfish purposes, such as being able to demonstrate a diverse applicant pool. I've had internal recruiters reach out to me on Monday and on Wednesday state that an offer had just been extended to someone else. I've also gone through a full-day panel interview process, ghosted for 6 weeks and then learned that the duties were given to those of an internal candidate who had interviewed me.
To be honest, the jobs I got was mainly when you see they contact you shortly and the process doesn’t take months ! So if they invite you to the next round is usually done within 2-5 days ! Else you can consider yourself disqualified !
Really? I've had jobs wherein it took nearly, a month, before they gave me a job offer, these instances were both due to a high volume of applicants. One immediately gave me the job offer after I followed up after nearly a month of waiting.
@@florenceashford6861 well, that's encouraging. Thx for sharing!!
If a company chose to take a month to fill a position, the person hired would have at least a month of work to catch up on or more. It would be a very hard job with a huge work load. I generally extend job offers after the first interview. I may tell the applicant I have other interviews to conduct before a decision is made, but ultimately I want to fill this position ASAP. I know every job is different. I interviewed at one place three times and had three interviews. I never got the job. What a waste of time, money and resources. Employers, please don’t do this to people.
@@genew5758 I have a company that start interviewing in December and only have me final answer in May !
I totally missed this one for some reason but love it!
Glad you said did this one. I often think my "pleasantly persistent" approach is too forward... Definitely appreciate the insight on this.
Is there a way to get companies to give you the real feedback? What I mean is that most times they just cover themselves by saying "Not the right fit." or "We are going in a different direction." I find it hard to get some really good feedback that will help me in the next interview.
I actually gave legitimate feedback and people couldn’t handle it! You can still ask though! Here’s my experience with telling candidates feedback: www.linkedin.com/pulse/i-told-job-applicants-why-were-rejected-disaster-heres-madeline-mann
Thank you! So many questions answered, priceless!
My pleasure, thank you for the lovely comment!
Really glad you mentioned when NOT to follow up post interview. I interviewed Thursday last week. They’ll have a decision Wednesday this week.
I send a email & never got response back.
You have great branding and high quality content. First time seeing a video
U J that is such a high compliment, thank you! How did you find the channel?
What if hiring manager responds ny saying “ we are still conducting interviews and we will get back to you in a few weeks once a decision is made”.
Mariana Caglioti I would check in in 2 weeks to inquire how the process is going if I hadn’t heard back yet
Self Made Millennial i did and sent it last week and no response from either HR or hiring manager. Im guessing they are still interviewing. I have to believe if they chose someone else they would have responded either way. Id hope.
This is a common practice I learnt it’s a No !
@@marianacaglioti8989 Employers have stopped telling the Nos no. Some tell you if your thank you is very good and they feel like they owe you additional information. If they are not that impressed, you will not hear about the NO(look up employers now ghosting applicants)
So it's like a fucking game I waited a whole week and I poured my heart out in that interview and no one is answer and replying and I might just give up that's some bullshit

I have a question. What's your recommendation on when to send out a thank you letter if the company has given you a timeline of when to hear back?
Always as soon as possible, within 24 hours. Thank you note and a follow up email are different, a timeline shouldn't affect a thank you note.
@@SelfMadeMillennial hello. I really like your videos it helps a lot. I did an interview and the computer was not letting me continue my documents. So the hiring manager told me he will call me on Friday. It's Tuesday and haven't heard of him. A friend of mine that works there said that the hiring manager is not hiring me because I was too quiet. But on my email says I got the job it's just that I have to finish the paper work. Should I go up there and ask him do I have the job. Or what should I do?
@@talexymyshell1363 Hi Talexy, follow up with the hiring manager as if your friend never said that. Continue as if you have the job and follow up ASAP with the hiring manager to see if he can talk. I recommend using the emails I've laid out here in this free download: eepurl.com/geOF2H
@@SelfMadeMillennial ok thank u so much for responding I will let u know soon🤞
@@talexymyshell1363You're welcome, best of luck!
My follow-up MUST READ! I spent a lot of time preparing for this interview and am desperate to get a job. Do NOT consider any other candidate as I don't take rejection well. I will expect to hear back from you soon.
Lol wtf?
Attached to this letter: a portable cooler with a human finger inside.
Oh no! Don't send an email like that because you will get labeled as unstable and controlling.
Hello Madeline. I had my initial interview with a recruiter, then my 2nd interview with one of the hiring managers. There is another round of interviews. Who should I send the follow up email to? The recruiter or the hiring mgr? Or both??
What if you have had multiple rounds of interview and then they don't respond at all? Pretty good sign, right?
"Self Made Millennial" what a channel name! lol
Arent all us Millenials self made? Lol
@@junkyardsanta8814 usually takes a mommy and a daddy to make them but alright 🤔
@Milena Shvedova don't feel bad, I was spat out of a Costco janitorial closet covered in someone elses blood. And that's how I went to prison 🤗

There are 2 slight misconceptions here: 1) Persistence gets jobs - this may be true for a tiny minority of candidates, but not for the majority, as although the recruiter may choose to hire a person who was persistent, most candidates (no matter how persistent) will not get the position, so it isn't persistence that gets them the role. 2) Being persistent means you'll automatically stay with a company long-term - this also isn't necessarily true as job seekers are often looking for what they need right now, and in a year or 2 years' time they might be looking for something new. It's not their persistence that means they'll stay long-term but their commitment to the role when they actually get there, as well as the support companies will give them in their role.
If it was persistence that got people jobs, I'd have loads of them right now.
So true
Persistence doesn’t always get you the job. Persistence can annoy the hiring manager to the point where you ruin your chances of getting the job. Follow up, maybe once, and walk away after that.
Hi Madeleine, I would really appreciate your insight on wether to wait or send them a message.
I applied for a grad role, made it through to a one-way interview, then an aptitude test. I took this test last Monday 21st and then received an email last Friday 25th thanking me for completing the test and they'll be in touch this week. It is now Wednesday 30th (end of day) and i'm wondering if I should keep waiting or send an email to follow up about next steps.
I'm also wondering if I did horribly on the aptitude test (it was hard) would they normally reject you pretty quick?
Wondering what your thoughts are on this . Thanks!
Should send a thank you message after 1st interview.?
I only follow up if the company offers a decent pay. If I was applying at a fast food then I won't even bother putting time and energy. I would just keep on applying elsewhere. They must have lost their minds if they expect me to dedicate my time and energy to show my interest in working for them if they are going to pay $7.25/hr.
The only companies I bothered following up was Ross and Dillard's cause they pay decent. The job offer for Ross was passed over to someone else but I got Dillard's. These are the people I would gladly follow up on.
That's a great point, focus your job search energy towards the roles you truly want, or else you will spread yourself too thin. Great to hear that you have target companies that you are pursuing.
The recruiter ghosted me after about 3 follow ups from us both. He was telling me that I did great, the directors of the dept are working diligently to fit me in, etc. Been almost 1.5 months & still no offer. Now the recruiter stopped replying. Now, this hospital is notorious for their hiring process taking a long time, but this is insane.
Did they end up following up?
I see so many videos about how to be a good candidate but no videos about how recruiters could be more human and understanding of people’s situation.
Hello, Madeleine and folks! Hope you're safe.
So, THEY RESPONDED! Should I KEEP THE CONVERSATION ON, to NOT lose the loop of the e-mail?
OR Should I NOT REPLY WITH "THANK YOU", AND SAVE this message for the NEXT FOLLOW UP (3-5 business days)?
1- TO THE HR - I thanked and asked about next steps! They responded saying "until the end of the week".
2- TO THE HIRING MANAGER - I thanked and asked nothing! I just sent a piece of work of interest. They responded "how nice! thank you!".
Great job! Follow up with HR after the time has elapsed that they gave you
Hey big fan of the videos! Lots of great recommendations! I have to say i completely disagree with your point about not reconsidering the candidate which followed back up (six times). To disregard someone so passionate about your company would be a major mistake. Likely that candidate is interviewing with other companies and is not only focussing all his time on yours. However, he clearly favors your company over the others. While everyone says they're specifically interested in a company, while interviewing, this candidate was probably being genuine about it. Not easy to find. A genuine interest in the work a company does is going to allow for the best quality of work possible. You don't have to extend extra effort to motivate that employee.
This worked!!! Got my offer today!! Wow, thank you so much!!
Thank you for reinforcing that persistence is OKAY in job searching! It took me a while to get that. Question for you, if you reach out to HR and hear that you did not make the cut to move forward in the interview process, is it okay, in your opinion, to send a slightly longer email emphasizing why you love the company and that you hope they will keep you in mind for anything else that comes up and matches your skill set? Thanks for the great insight!!
Thank you for watching! Totally, I think it's a great practice to send that kind of email, it shows a lot about your character to be positive in the face of rejection! In this video at 6:28 I really like that as a starting point of the kind of message to write.
I actually saved that as an example for myself when I first watched this video! Thanks :)
If you haven't heard back from them by the time they said, it's because they offered it to someone else. The day after they were supposed to get back to you, send a polite follow-up email letting them know you're interested, because there is still the chance whoever they offered it to will refuse and that will increase your chances of them liking you as a second option. But do not sit around waiting to hear back from them. Keep looking for something else, and worry about them if/when they get back to you.
Some large companies have multiple steps and different people along the way. Three to five business days in the process and your file will be in a different office.
Sent an email going on 4 days no response.... They this was my 3rd interview... had the initial interview on the phone, virtual interview, and the phone interview all different people and they all said they are looking to hire quickly... advice?
People are so fake! They way people lie and portray themselves as these gracious human beings. SMH and then start the job and become entitled or show signs of racism. It’s ridiculous. Culture plays a huge role. And the more butt you kid the more the boss enjoys your worshipping. People love their whole lives like this. Really
I sent the thank you emails. And I got a response from 1 of the interviewers. She said the HR person would contact me this week for next steps....but nothing yet. Tomorrow is Friday. I thought I'd send the HR person a follow email tomorrow asking about next steps...and I happened to be put of state but will be back next week and mention that? What do you think? Or anyone else?
How can I know if I’m rejected after phone interview ? They didn’t say yes or no
Hi Millenial, thank you for your great videos! I wanted to ask on whether I should start a new email chain with the follow up letter, or continue from the initial ''hi we would like to interview you'' conversation, or from my 'thank you' letter? Also, does it mean anything if I didn't receive a response to my 'thank you' letter? Thanks!
I also didn’t get a response to my thank you emails either so I’d really like to know what @selfmademillenial suggests
6:25 "At this point you may think I'm stalking the company" LOL
6:48, I still think that's a long farewell email. I don't even reply to rejection emails unless I make it to the final round. 5:48, Also, about that guy who followed up with 6 emails after getting rejected. Have some dignity man! Pull yourself together. There are other jobs out there.
ominous450 just long enough for them to be so kind as to reject her a second time!
These were all email responds.. Why no phone call follow ups. Its easy to hide behind a keyboard but when callin, the interaction, voice tone, and chemistry is on the spot and is harder. Many would like to know what to say on a follow up phone call. Not emails.
Sure! Call to follow up if you have their number. Recruiters are often happy to take a call, and hiring managers over 40 may enjoy a call as well.
The youtube must provide a way to turn off any background music. I love your video and content, except the music keeps repeating.
Sinong Ou
@@SelfMadeMillennial Wow, you are so great and responsive! Not your fault though. Someone might like back music, but someone might want to turn it off. UA-cam needs improvement.
Sinong Ou you can always mute it and put closed captions on, just a thought.
I interviewed with them they told me to send reference which I did. They told me they’d let me know either way by Friday came Monday I send a follow up email. Still no response what should I do?
I really hope I get this job I need it
Gerald the legend Kmiecik #97 rooting for you!
did you get it?
They said to me they will get to me fastest on Friday or latest next week. Friday passed. I dying
Medusawitch Shepard This has happened to me many times 😔 it’s the worst. I’m sorry.
@@SelfMadeMillennial monday morning now! I think i really need help. Should i send email ask them in the morning or afternoon?
Medusawitch Shepard follow up now, it doesn’t matter if it’s the morning or afternoon.
@@SelfMadeMillennial good news! I got job! Thank you for advice! I ask them in morning and yeppp really good news
@@medusawitchful YESS!!!!! SO HAPPY FOR YOU!
If they give you a time frame like "you should hear back in 1-4 weeks", when should you start following up? At the 1 week mark or the 4 week mark?
After the 4 weeks. By then no follow up is a very clear answer another candidate was chosen.
Hi. If you don’t have good contact info or forgot to ask during the interview, what is the best way to go about getting it?
I WAS given a time frame they would get back to me, End of the Week. Should I follow up in any way Thursday the day before Friday? They were checking my references so I think I am going to get an offer.
Very bad advice! Finding a job is dating. The approach offered in this video would be disastrous in dating, and it is equally disastrous in a job search. She recommends over-pursuit… calling, emailing or texting every 3-5 days, etc. Wrong, wrong, and wrong! This is what stalkers do, and it’s intimidating to the recipient!
Over-pursuit violates every principle of attraction, which depends on the appearance of scarcity. When the appearance of scarcity is coupled with the reality of scarcity, that is optimal for the job seeker.
Get a certificate others do not have or which is in scarce supply…. then you won’t have to over-pursue.
Based on this video, I wouldn’t take any of this millennial woman’s advice. Find a more competent coach.
Exactly what I needed to hear, thanks Madeline :)
This may sound silly, but are recruitment managers & hiring managers the same? I’m currently in contact with a recruiting manager and want to follow up so I want to make sure I follow up correctly.
Possibly not...is their job title “Recruitment Manager” in that case, they are more like HR. “Hiring manager” is an informal term and does not reflect someone’s professional title.
Can i call thm after 5 days? Interview was good..tey told seen you soon
Yes
so if they said the would make a decision by Friday should I follow up the next Monday?
Yes follow up Monday!
Can you followup with a phone call?
hello what to do in that case i have given interview two round and i received a message that i passed the interview and now HR will contact you for salery and offer within 7 days now its has been almost 10 days i haven't hear back from them should i contact them or wait few more days
The hiring manager said HR will send me an email to follow up "later". But I did not receive any emails by end of the day. The interview was shorter than expected, probably between 35 to 40min (scheduled for 1 hour), and they did not ask if I have any questions at the end. Should I take that as a bad sign? On the other hand, I received a job offer from a second choice company, which gave me a few days to consider. Should I inform the first choice company about this, will it actually put them off?
Congrats on the offer! Follow the steps on this video: ua-cam.com/video/lMokTDB9vqE/v-deo.html
@@SelfMadeMillennial Thank you for your response. I did that and my first choice asked me to wait a while more, as the feedbacks from hiring managers were positive (HR replied that is). The second choice didn't budge on the reply deadline. In times like now, I am not sure if it is worth the gamble to reject the offer and wait for the first, which has way better career growth and benefits. The second is a generalist role, while first is a niche area.
What i supposed to respond after follow up email n manager said that “Due to the number of positions and applicants, our interview and selection process takes some time. We will get back to all candidates in the coming weeks.” what i supposed to say
If a Hiring Manager or HR Supervisor does not get back to you in a timely manner, then they shouldn't be in their jobs. You don't keep candidates you have interviewed hanging under the guise that the Hiring Manager or HR Supervisor is busy and your follow-up email may have gotten lost because they're so busy and have full schedules.. They are in HR, evaluating suitable candidates and deciding on people, yet they lack the common courtesy and professionalism to reach out with either a positive or negative decision? Come on. If you have to chase down one of these people after you've sent a follow-up e-mail, just know it's on them and their cowardice. There is no excuse for not getting back to a candidate. Stop making excuses for them.
I was told i have the job if i have the requirements for the linscense and she would call me later that day but didnt do i follow up?

Why you meet the requirements

Specific follow-up questions

Personalized message
Hello Madeline, is it appropriate, if I don't have email addresses of the panel of interviewers, to look them up online and email them with a follow up email, AFTER the interview, thanking them and briefly clarifying the points about my experience, that I forgot to mention during the interview? Thank you so much for your reply!
Yes! Here are more of my thoughts on that: ua-cam.com/video/HZw-DY6ryQo/v-deo.html
8 or 9 months? Might as well take a course to further your knowledge for more opportunities
Is it appropriate to go visit the store again after dropping off your resume? And asking them about your job application?
I got the bad news but my question is: I work in the Hotel industry, I am thinking of going back to introduce myself to the HR department of the place that said no to see if that might work. A couple of months from now. Good idea?
Hi Madeline,
I know the value of sending a relevant project or past work from your previous employer, but does it come off as slightly desperate to send one on a last email attempt to a hiring manager?
I went through 4 interviews, with the last one over 2 weeks ago. Each interviewer enjoyed speaking with me and I was referred by a friend.
Hi Madeline, I need you help,
I was interviewed for a spring engineering internship in November 30th 2018. The interview went well, I followed up with emails to know their decision, they told me that before making a decision the team wanted review all the candidates. I followed up many times, for some reason the team that interview with me took to much time to make a decision. Finally on February 19th 2019 the recruiter told me that he was sorry I didn´t work out to the Spring Internship (I assume that it was too late to enroll to the internship because of the lack of decision from the team), but he told me he was evaluating head count across his hiring team and ask me if I was open for a Summer 2019 and Fall 2019 Internship, I told him that I was open. Since then he just went silent. I have followed up 5 times by now using your tips and he hasn´t answer. I don’t know what else to do, keep following up?, call him?, send the “off the market” email?.
What would you recommend?
That's great to hear that they like you and want to consider you for future internships, that for sure means something. I would follow up once a month from here on out, but do not rely on this opportunity. When you get another offer, send the off the market email, but don't focus too much on getting this job.
@@SelfMadeMillennial
OK, right now I have another job offer that I am willing to take, the truth is that I am very interested in this internship, so if I’m accepted I’m willing to quit the job and take the internship. Should I keep following up normally like nothing is happening or just with the off the market email would be better for them to make a move?
@@danielroman273 Congrats on the offer! This is interesting. I would actually recommend sticking with the once a month follow up email in your case, since you would switch internships. You're in a good situation!
Well, they ignored my thank you email right after the interview, and ignored my follow up email. I just sent this one out, so hopefully they’ll respond. I find it so unprofessional that people can just ghost you…
I did an interview on monday and they told me tht they would get back to me by the end of the week. I followed up with them the following monday and i havent heard back from them, should I sent another follow up?.
Oh btw, I sent a thank you email to them the same say I did my interview and they responded
Thanks so much for the info. Can I still follow up with hiring manager? Hiring manager told me that the company recruiter will follow up with me in one or two weeks.
How long has it been?
Let's say I reached out to the HR POC and they said they don't have not made a decision yet but they will reach back out to me after reaching out to the hiring manager and the team. But haven't replied back yet, it's been 4 days now after the 2nd follow up. Can you please explain what happens once they say they'll get back to me after reaching out to the hiring manager and the team? What are the steps they take internally?
Question: the hiring manager was not in that day so the production manager did the interview. Should I send it to them, production manager?
Your advice is amazing! Thank you.
I did my Interview like 2 weeks ago, and I didn't receive any call or email. Then I went to the place and the interviewer told me that I am good for the job and he needs 4-5 more days, then He will call me to do more paper work. Is that a good sign?
Yes, I’m assuming you got the job?
@@hadrianaugustus3547 Yes, I did my second interview last week, and got the job.
Sam Hunster good job man!
I had 8 interview for one company. Is this normal?
They already gave me a date for when they will get back to me. Should i still follow up?
Depends I would say, be patient so perhaps a day after their own deadline.... Initiative is good but if they gave you a date, be patient for them to fulfill their word. Unless you have something specific to submit to them so do a two in one... Good Luck and God Bless
Hi, I had my interview on Tuesday and they’ve told me they will get back to me by the end of this week, I haven’t send any follow up email till date, will it be right for me to send a follow up email after Friday if I haven’t heard from them?
Madeline ***QUESTION FOR JOB SEARCH IN 2024 *** about how to follow up after JOB APPLICATION (THANKS VERY MUCH FOR YOUR HELP OVER LAST FEW YEARS BY THE WAY). SO FRUSTRATING IN 2O24 THAT COMPANIES MAKE IT VIRTUALLY IMPOSSIBLE TO FOLLOW UP ON A job application... They provide no venue to follow up most times and even if applicant knows who lead recruiter is MANY TIMES CONTACTING THAT PERSON ON LINKEDIN **BACKFIRES** though I thought recruiters were supposed to be excited about Gung ho applicants who follow up. Any thoughts for the 2024 landscape ??
Hello! I interviewed on Sunday and she said we will follow up toward the end of the week... should I follow up on Thursday, Friday or Monday? I think I was one of the 1st to interview, on zoom(ugh), 3 managers and its a big company. I don't want them to forget about me, what do you think?
What if they did not give a timeline? I asked about the next steps and was told the initial recruiter I spoke to would email me requesting a list of professional references? I felt the interview went well, but I’m thinking that this is a bad sign.
How do you handle a company ghosting you? I've had a company going through a slowdown say they would get back to me. I followed up twice a month apart. I don't know if I should follow up with them the third time? Last they said they would get back to and that was back in Sept and it's now November.
Good to know I've taken the apt steps. Fingers crossed 🤞🤞🤞 I'm applying for the only role of it's kind in my industry.
Jonathan Easterling wow wishing you the best. I’m rooting for you!
@@SelfMadeMillennial mahalo!! I'll keep you posted and share some of the extra steps I took during the process.
@@je3917 Excellent, looking forward to it!
So I had my third-round interview last Thursday with the team. The hiring manager was not a part of this interview - met with him for my second interview. In total, I’ve met with 10 ppl in 2 weeks for 3 interviews. Noticed yesterday afternoon that the job posting was taken down from website, and I’m still unclear what comes next. Any insights? Planning to follow up on Thursday should I hear nothing.
Yes follow up!
Self Made Millennial I definitely will be tomorrow! Interestingly, the position was re-posted the following day. My gut tells me that it was on a timer and just expired. It’s just strange that they were very communicative and the process was moving along and then...silence.
Self Made Millennial Update: followed up and heard back today. Interviewer indicated that the week got away from him and that he plans to get back to me no later than Wednesday, if not sooner. So we shall see 🤷🏻♂️
@@danielrone3360 Did you get the job?
@@jacksonblack2776 I did not get that job, no, I will say that the hiring manager did appreciate my consistent follow-up: I would highly recommend doing so to anyone job searching. Since that interview series, however, I am now successfully employed elsewhere :).
Excellent videos! I'm taking away a ton of insight and ideas. The way you explain things, and the ideas, are perfect. thanks!
If you are interviewing with multiple ppl, do you send a thank you follow up Email to each person ?
Keep interviewing until you have an offer.
I had interview last Friday , they called me the following Tuesday unfortunately I did not hear my phone and they did not leave a voicemail. I called back and the lady said her manager stepped out. She took my number down but it’s now Thursday and I haven’t got a call back yet. What’s that mean ?
Question... I was hired by company x in January, due to Covid I was furloughed in March. I recently reached out for a possible internship position and they told me about another contract opportunity they would have available during that time frame. However, we met up for coffee to discuss this position, I thought it went well. Yet, I was just emailed saying they are going to continue with the interview process and will reach out in December! However, my last college semester starts mid January 2021 and I NEED to complete an internship.. How should I processed?! Help!

My friend was told she would hear from them 2 weeks ago. They didn't get back to her. She followed up a week after (last week) and was told the hiring manager had not decided yet. One week passes and still no updates. She's feeling defeated with the lack of replies.
what if they did not give a timeline but said that ''Once we have the client's feedback, we will contact you. I would appreciate your patience.'' ? should I wait or follow up ?

Hi, I just finished virtual interview yesterday. Should I send a thank you email to them?
It's okay, I found your video already 😂ua-cam.com/video/HZw-DY6ryQo/v-deo.html
Wonderful!
I interview for an engineering internship on December 17th. I followed up with an email and a handwritten letter. I was told I should expect a formal offer by January 11th. On January 21st, they told me they'd "let me know when they have an update on the position as soon as they can." It is February 4th and I have received nothing! Should I follow up even though it is for a summer internship? Thank you Madeline!
Hi Morgan, YES keep following up - you're getting responses that are good, and most importantly, not "no." They like you! I know it sounds crazy, but we ended up giving an internship to a student who followed up 12 times. We responded to him a lot like this, with timeline adjustments and not ready to commit, and he stayed persistent. Also especially since this is for the summer...if you're in the US that means summer is still a while away so they probably do not have urgency for this. But no matter which country you're in, follow up! Good job!
@@SelfMadeMillennial I did! Turns out the HR person switched roles in the company. The new HR lady told me I should know by Wednesday! I also got a phone interview with another company! If I get this offer, should I still interview (the phone interview wouldn't be for another 3 weeks)? Thank you so much, Madeline!
@@morganmcintyre5871 WOW congrats, good work! In reference to your question about getting an offer and still interviewing, I made a video on how to handle that: ua-cam.com/video/lMokTDB9vqE/v-deo.html
@@SelfMadeMillennial Thank you so much!
