    Feeling Miscellaneous Thinking

    I recently had an interview with a company where the interviewers made a big deal about how they would notify all candidates within two weeks, even giving me a specific date. They emphasized that they didn't want anyone to feel uncertain about their status and promised to follow through, whether or not they wanted to move forward with me. Well, that date has come and gone, and I haven't heard a thing. It feels like they completely BSed me about their commitment to communication and the company culture they were promoting. I know ghosting is common, but it still stings when they make promises they don't keep. It's frustrating because I was hopeful, and now I'm left feeling disheartened and questioning everything they said.

    Feeling Planning Thinking

    I received a last-minute call for an interview with a company, but it was scheduled for the very next day. The location was a couple of hours away, and unfortunately, I was feeling unwell. I knew I couldn't make it, nor could I provide a timeline for when I might be able to reschedule due to my illness. I communicated to them that I couldn't prepare or attend the interview under those circumstances. I sensed that they were looking for someone to come in immediately, which made me feel pressured. In hindsight, I wonder if I should have suggested a later date for the interview, even if it meant waiting a week. I'm left questioning if there was a better way to handle the situation or if I should have approached it differently.
