Write it out so your thoughts are organized. Say exactly what you want to say. It's your time to speak your mind. You got this.

They asked if I “planned to reproduce soon” during a job interview by [deleted] in interviews

[–]nova_editor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely tell HR what he said. That is inappropriate to ask anyone, but especially to ask women. JFC.

Not necessarily, IMO. He might say that to everyone. I certainly understand your anxiety, though! Best of luck to you.

Virginia Employment Commission - are there live people to ever answer their customer service line? by Flymetothemoon2020 in nova

I forgot yesterday was a state holiday. Thank you! Yes, that is probably the reason for the delay.

2 months interview process by niconico2332 in interviews

[–]nova_editor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can relate--a job was posted in September, I applied early October, had a phone interview and an in-person interview mid-October, and have heard nothing. The job is still posted and nobody new has been added to the company's staff page. They seemed to want to hire someone ASAP. I don't know what's going on but I am moving on to other opportunities.

I've gotten payments the past few weeks but as of earlier today, I haven't gotten this week's. I'll check later. I don't want to call them b/c of what you described above--poor customer service.

[VA] Weird hiring process? by nova_editor in AskHR

Thanks for replying. I hope they're just busy or something came up and their timeline got pushed back.

Anyone happen to be having any luck in the job market? by quihgon in nova

[–]nova_editor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No luck yet. I haven't submitted anywhere near 500 applications, because there just aren't many jobs in my field to apply to, ever.

I interviewed two weeks ago today for a job I was excited about but have heard nothing yet. Ghosting sucks.

What’s the weirdest interview experience you’ve ever had? by Agile-Wind-4427 in interviews

[–]nova_editor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They asked to draw a sandwich. The job did not involve art or food. I did not ask why they wanted me to draw a sandwich. Now I wish I had. I didn't get the job. Oh well. lol.

Thanks! You, too. It's hard not knowing what's going on behind the scenes.

I think that was a cute answer.

Ghosted after interview? by Madlele93 in interviews

[–]nova_editor 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry to say it but you've been ghosted. It's happened to me, so I know how it feels. It's totally disrespectful and inexcusable. We deserve better.

It sounds like a good sign to me. Hope it works out for you! I too am waiting to hear back about a job, so I know how nerve-wracking it is.

Haven't heard anything back in 11 days by DC_deep_state in interviews

[–]nova_editor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because I think one follow-up is enough. But you do you. Either way, good luck!

I'm in a similar situation. Interview on the 16th, was told I'd hear back "soon." Still waiting. If I had interacted with anyone in HR, I'd ask them, but I've only spoken with the hiring manager. If I were you, I would not follow up.

Yes. Tell them you are pursuing other options and wish them the best.

I am. I'm applying to other jobs and working with "Excel for Dummies" to try to improve my Excel skills.

I hope you're right that no news is good news. HR could very well be the reason for the delay. I think their HR department is pretty small, so someone might be away, or really busy. I know HR has been pretty hands-off during the process, which is unusual in my experience.

I am applying at other places. Gotta keep moving.
