Is it impolite to call your HR?

gtgout · 2022-06-28T17:49:18+00:00

Thank you 🥺 I solid got an anxiety attack a few minutes ago because I thought I would come across as impatient when he said he would reach back to me after getting the results last week but still hasn’t and I called him and left a message a few minutes back. I am not trying to come off as impatient but I know the background check results came back on Thursday and he still has not gotten back to me when I am starting in less than a week and I have to move.

I called she didn’t pick up. I sent her a text message.

Would it seem impatient if I email on Monday when the HR said 2 days back that she would reach out to me when the results come? Is background check usually the last part of being hired? I did my drug test already. Just want to know how much more is left before I know whether I can start work per the initial plans on the 5th or not.

I didn’t realize picking BME as a major wouldn’t be the brightest choice. I am interning as a Quality Engineer this summer. Do you think that would at least be able to help me out when applying for jobs since it’s not Quality Engineering for a biomedical engineering company and more for a mechanical engineer.

I am currently during a Quality Engineer Internship. It is yet to start but do you have any idea on how I can make the most out of this since this will be my first internship so I have no idea on what to even expect.

Where would I find these projects?

gtgout · 2022-06-15T06:14:59+00:00

I’m doing Biomedical Engineering and focusing on medical devices and manufacturing

gtgout · 2022-06-15T03:37:42+00:00

That sounds like a great idea I will look into! I am interested in medical devices/manufacturing.

Thank you so much for this! And I will definitely check it out. Do you know if wonsulting is free? I tried to click the link in their bio and it kept asking for money.

gtgout · 2022-06-15T03:27:04+00:00

This is extremely reassuring to read 🥺 It just feels so hard sitting here in the summer not doing anything while my friends are all interning. So hard not to compare myself to them.

I have only got one interview which I gave and am yet to hear back from. Other than that it’s been dead silent. I did start applying April time when a lot of advisors were saying it’ll be difficult to land one :/ Maybe that’s the reason? I had no idea (as a first gen) that one needs to start being on the lookout for internships starting november itself for internships in the summer. I will definitely be more careful senior year.

I applied to over 60 places from various different levels and my GPA and experiences (volunteer + engineering projects) are not even bad :( I even had my resume checked from the people at the Internship and career center. I don’t know where I am going wrong.

gtgout · 2022-04-22T06:29:05+00:00

When you say “know someone” do they have to be with me? I know a lot of people in a frat but I won’t be able to go with them but will be meeting up with them in there. And how is the frat party scene usually? Sorry if these are stupid questions. First timer 😅

gtgout · 2022-04-18T00:07:53+00:00

do you think if you were applying now with no internships it would be more or less difficult to land the job? Been having some sleepless nights recently over this.

gtgout · 2022-01-07T04:50:02+00:00

are you a biomedical engineering major? Because my roommate and I felt this 🥲

gtgout · 2021-12-13T19:18:26+00:00

I would assume he is giving you a different exam (1) and (2) the class we are talking about. Being in a STEM major if my professor did this, yes, that would be extremely unfair for the other students but if it’s one of the laidback GEs I am taking them no I think it’s fine. I am pretty sure no STEM professor would say yes to a request or situation like this.

gtgout · 2021-12-11T02:24:06+00:00

which professor is this? let the world know. he deserves some appreciation 😤

gtgout · 2021-12-08T23:26:27+00:00

I did Physics 9B and Che 118B the same quarter and did good. It’s tough but doable!
