That is honestly hard to believe! Companies, as a rule, always tell you whether you have moved on to the next recruiting phase once they have contacted you initially.



This is absolutely not true at all. Many companies fail to communicate their decisions with you after you interview.

As a general rule of thumb, if you don’t hear back within 2 weeks after a face to face interview, you probably got cut.

It’s always nice when they send you a follow up email letting you know, but that’s not always the case.

Human Resource and Recruiting professionals are taking their own sweet time in the current labor market. They know there is little pressure to get the hire done quickly, because there is usually a high number of qualified candidates for the job. If one drops out, they just move on to the next qualified person.
