frankly most managers know shIt about recruitment. i have seen many times how bosses sing praises about their newly recruited talent only to see them sit at their desk rotting with little or no results to show. the worst is this people just wont lose their jobs.Originally posted by DeadPoet:Keep trying!
Used to be unemployed for 8 whole mths. Really suck!
PS. I was from HR, although you may be ideal for the job but compare with other applicants you may not be the best choice. Maybe that was why you were not selected.![]()
after 911?Originally posted by tare:dragg, dun give up ya?
i was "out of job" for 2yr+... i hated it too.... everyday send out tons of application letter.... mostly no response... even got response also no go thru... very demoralising.... like machiam i'm not wanted in the industry anymore....
but just keep trying... one day, the opportunity will knock and u're all ready for it...
Empahtically disagree. There's everything wrong with them - it's just that it's such common practice that people have taken it to be normal.Originally posted by No_Problemo:Nothing wrong with them, they testing water and try to get the best deal. Now is so call employer market.
actually i dont believe that people get jobs because they did well in an interview. most of the time it is not the case.Originally posted by zodi:think of it this way... they are probably not perfect employers too... or at least not very professional interviewers (judging from the comments they make to their interviewees)...
get over the rejections you've faced so far... focus on what you can learn from the past and how you can do better the next time round.
all the best.![]()
wat does it gotta to do with 911??Originally posted by dragg:after 911?
well, if they don't hv results to show, i am sure they will hv to face the 'music' in a matter time...(how long will depend how lucky or how blind the managers are)Originally posted by dragg:frankly most managers know shIt about recruitment. i have seen many times how bosses sing praises about their newly recruited talent only to see them sit at their desk rotting with little or no results to show. the worst is this people just wont lose their jobs.
coz they suck up to their bosses.
a lot of businesses failed after sep 11 attack. the economy has not really been good since then.Originally posted by tare:wat does it gotta to do with 911??![]()
realise (thru my hubby) many companies have more than 2 interviews to go...highly stressful and time consuming....Originally posted by dragg:it is really making me crazy having to go through the whole cycle over and over again.
response to an advertisement.
wait for closing date and see if they response - normally 2 weeks.
go for 1st interview - wait a few more days to see if shortlisted for 2nd interview.
go for 2nd interview - wait in vain.
i cannot stand it anymore!!!!
frankly i find the whole procedure a waste of time.Originally posted by a_splash:realise (thru my hubby) many companies have more than 2 interviews to go...highly stressly and time consuming....
but by having so many interviews are they effective ??( interms of finding the rite person?) u want to find the good one. the good ones also will want a good company wah....never ending.....
these days, HR are putting in lots of effort on interviews but can u tell from intereviews?? i don't know....
nah tat wasn't cos of 911..... long story ....Originally posted by dragg:a lot of businesses failed after sep 11 attack. the economy has not really been good since then.
how did you survive 2 years without a job?Originally posted by tare:nah tat wasn't cos of 911..... long story ....
well no work, no go out... no go out no spend $$....Originally posted by dragg:how did you survive 2 years without a job?
i am 19 months into it and the clock is still ticking.
i find it mentally stressful.
Originally posted by dragg:on both occasions they said i am perfect for the job and commented that my asking pay is low, but eventually did not offer me the job.
isnt that contradictory?
dont employers want workers that are cheap and good?
