I get interviews, even follow up interviews.......then nothing

I have been sending in resumes left and right. Yes I have gotten interviews, even second interviews but I don't know what happens after that. In my gut, I always feel like I did really well. I guess my gut doesn't know crap. It really wouldn't be a fraction as bad if interviewers had the decency to shoot a rejection email. I will even take one of those fill-in-the-blanks generic rejection letters. I try not to bother them and just make one phone call or send one email a week after the date they say they will let me know by. And no one ever returns the calls or emails. I really wish I knew what their impression of me was. Why am I not getting hired? Could it be a former employer bad mouthing me? Completely frustrated and ready to throw in the towel.

I've personally have been waiting on an employer to contact me, as a reference, for someone that has worked, for me. Been waiting for a couple of weeks now.
I agree, a generic letter or constructive feedback would be ideal. If I recall the local labor workforce office(formerly titled unemployment) offers resume and I think interview workshops. Don't need to collect to utilize resources. Could help you make minor adjustments, if that's at issue.

Thanks. I am not considered "unemployed". I am on worker's comp for an injury from a patient with dementia. I don't think the problem is with my resume and cover letter. I am getting interviews. I am starting to think it has something to do with the actual interview. Either I don't look the part or maybe I am not answering their questions the way they want. The worst part, is I feel like the interview goes well and they "seem" to like me but I guess I am not picking up on the fact that they aren't interested.

Have you tried vocational rehab? I have OCD, which is considered a disability, and they do workshops and help you with interviews. I'm not sure what your condition is but you may qualify, too. You might want to speak with your therapist about it. I didn't know anything about it until my therapist suggested it. They sent over records from my doc and therapist to make sure I qualified and I did. Also, I always send a thank you note the day after an interview thanking them for their time. Hope this helps.

I completely understand how you feel. I've been going through the same thing for 2 1/2 years. It's increadibly frustrating to go into an interview and know you nailed it, then never hear anything back, not even a form letter, and to not have anyone respond when you try to contact the interviewer. And no one will ever say why you weren't selected to move on.

Hang in there. Hopefully your luck will turn around.

You're not alone Bunluva. I have had numerous interviews over the past 6 months and some that I thought went fantastic but no offer yet. Very frustrating. I'm an attorney trying to get a job as a paralegal so I got some interview answer advice from an attorney I respect very much. I'm going to change up how I answer the question why I don't want to practice law anymore and see if that makes a difference.

Good luck in your job search. I'm sure something will come through eventually - - for both of us.
