I got called to a job interview, got all prepped up, the clothes, the reviewing, the drive, the overnight stay, etc. Ten days later I'm called back for a follow up interview. I followed up with an email a week later asking for status, not for a decision, but for an estimate of how long a decision may take. I'm told they need another week.
Nothing.
Two and half months later I find out by accident that they hired somebody else. Now the following are all quite acceptable.
1. I didn't get hired.
2. I drove 800 miles and gas alone exceeded $100 all at my expense.
3. I was put up by friends for several nights, which I repaid by taking them out to dinner and breakfast.
This is not acceptable:
1. Not even getting an email telling me they came to a decision.
So now I hear these words replaying in my head.
Nothing.
