Being snubbed is worse than being rejected
I have 2 IB hirevues pending, from 4 weeks and 5 weeks respectively with no response. Yes I know I should just give up because waiting this long means I didn't get a chance in either. Fine by me, really. But why aren't they communicating that? It seriously won't take much effort since I'm already filtered out. I don't know how to control my impulse either, I check the careers page for updates even though I know I'm out. This legit has to feel worse than getting a rejection. It just makes me feel snubbed and insignificant, not even worthy of a "pound sand" email. Just send the rejection email already, I could know people have got their offers 2 weeks ago already. I hate being whiny but this just stings.
Rant over.
Never seemed to understand this behavior, best is to assume the worst, it didn't workout and move on.
One of the crazy reasons I have heard is that they want to keep all cards on the table, say they suddenly want you (which is doubtful given the initial response), they can bring you in because they did not reject you at any point.
It's not really about hanging over what could possibly be, I know I didn't get it.
My point here is, it makes me feel kinda worthless when they treat it like that. They can literally send me an email saying fuck off and I will feel happier about myself
It happens
This is IB, a lack of recognition for your efforts is just part of the game. Use the chip on your shoulder to push even harder and next thing you know you'll get to where you want to go.
Because there is no benefit or upside to the company. By not telling you they keep their options open, avoid potential complaints and lawsuits, save time, etc.
