DAMN! What a Buzz Kill!

Tuesday Jan 22, 2008

I got the e-mail instead of the phone call, dammit! :((

Dear John MacDonald;

Thank you for the interest you demonstrated in our first round interview for a possible position at Accenture.

Our interview process is very competitive and unfortunately, we have decided that we will not be moving forward with your candidacy for the position we discussed. We will retain your information and contact you if your skills match one of our open roles in the future.

Thank you for the time you had spent speaking with Accenture representatives. Please accept our sincere best wishes for success in your future endeavours.

Sincerely,

The Rejection Department.

That’s the second time I’ve been given the PFO letter. What is it that keeps me from getting hired there? Damn! That really sucks, I was really looking forward to working there.

Well let’s hope that the tech support job comes through next I guess. OH Yea, I applied for a tech support job also.

I probably got the same Dear John letter at the same time, although it was to goddamn busy to stop and ready it! That really sucks! I was rooting for you, despite the financial gain that you’d have caused me, due to your hire and continued employment.

That’s a real bummer. I was hoping to work with you again.

Sorry to hear that. I really thought I would be working with you. :-(

DL, bummer just doesn’t describe what I felt when I read that.

Corey, I was looking forward to working with you again too.

Devin, It would have been cool seeing you again. Are you working there now?

What is it that keeps me from getting hired there?

You could always follow up with the person you interviewed and ask them that question. I’ve done that before.
I’m sorry that you did not receive the job.

Uhh Yeah Uhh Yeah:

whered you apply for a tech support job? over the phone tech support?

Those always ruin your day. But it may be for the best. Think positive about the tech support job. Have you interviewed there yet?

Opal, I would if I knew who to contact. It’s funny that you asked because just as I started this comment I got a call from the Tech Support Job and did an over the phone interview. Crossing fingers! This is right up my ally too!

Uhh Yeah, Yup. Like I mentioned above, just finished the phone interview. :D It’s tech support for broadband internet. Not a 3rd party Call center, the company itself is looking for ppl.

teeni, I hope so. Maybe for the better if I get the tech support job instead. I hear it’s more money too.

Uhh Yeah Uhh Yeah:

Tech support. thinking up ways to tell people they are stupid without telling people they are stupid.

Makes you wonder how these people survive, but its good job security. people are getting dumber not smarter, so it bodes well for techs :dance:

John,

Yeah I work with my esteemed collegue Corey! As for the Tech Support job I hope you get it! That would be an awesome job!

January 23rd, 2008 | 10:42 pm

Tech support is so much fun!

January 24th, 2008 | 8:09 pm

Yup :d
