Topic: Job Hunting: What does this mean?
Anonymous A started this discussion 15 years ago #694
Got an email from a guy I interviewed with for a job.
What do?
Here's the situation. The company has hired a second Marketing Director who will handle residential products only. Once this person is here and up to speed they will most likely start the hiring process over again for the graphic designer position.
I will make sure the new director know who I have interviewed and my recommendations concerning those applicants.
Sorry for the long delay in all of this.

You're still in the running, I think.

Job hunting is when you hunt employers like big game.

Yeah, but they're starting the whole process over... They might even put out new ads asking for new job applicants.

Ask if you should apply again, then. Don't think so, though.

It sounds like something didn't work out, they still need someone for the position they were advertising for, and they don't want to go through collecting applicants again.
If you are still interested, you should probably reply and say that you are still interested.

Alright, I wrote this:
Thank you for the prompt reply. I really appreciate that you've taken the time to keep me in the loop. I've attached my resume to ensure you have one on file. Once again, thank you for all you've done.

Nah, then they'd say something like, "We've decided to go with a different direction," or "We've decided to not fill that position at this time" or something along those lines.
