    Call them. I've never chased up an application until yesterday and I'm glad I did. I hadn't been shortlisted for the job I really wanted but I found out the reason why and have been able to, hopefully, rectify it for further applications. I'd never think twice about chasing things up again now

    I have twice already :rotfl: I'll phone again after lunchtime though, don't think there's much to lose anymore.
    Just because you made a mistake doesn't mean you are a mistake.

    Oh :( that's pretty bad they are keeping you hanging on like this. Always worth another try, will keep my fingers crossed for you

    3 weeks ago I had my second interview. Am I being too pushy? I think I'm losing the plot now :(

    Definitely not if it's three weeks ago! I'd say that you've had a second interview and are wondering if the successful candidate has been informed yet if they have the job. Ask for feedback from your interview as well if I were you

    Have you tried calling them again? They really seem to be messing you about, not a good impression :(

    I do keep bothering them ;) but because it's through an agency they're basically saying "it's the company, not us... we'll let you know when we know" :mad:

    So frustrated right now ... grrrr! :wall: I'm sure I'm going to just simply flip out at some point this week :eek:


    Out of my mind. Back in five minutes.

    Oh well another day, another rejection! At least they head the common courtesy to let me know!

    I think we are all a bit fed up and angry today!

    Just phoned the company. They are making decisions right now apparently and they should hopefully let me know by this evening. Ohh fingers and everything else is very much crossed.
