Seeking LEGIT Job Search Advice- post 2nd interview
Poast new message in this thread
Date: June 30th, 2009 5:46 PM Author: Fiercely-loyal big milk newt I had two interviews with a firm that I would very much like to work for. The first one was with the managing partner, and we got along great. The second one was with a bunch more partners, but due to nerves, and some slightly unprofessional behavior during the interview by one of the partners, I felt like it didn't go nearly as well as the first. Not bad, but just not really good. Also, I completely forgot my stock answers to gloss over some holes in my resume due to nerves, and felt like I didn't explain myself enough.
I didn't hear from them in over a month, but every week I either emailed or left a short voice message with the managing partner, expressing my continued interest (with no response). Maybe three weeks ago, I got an email saying that they had put the hiring decision on hold, and would let me know when they made a decision. Last week, another email saying that they would be hiring soon. Today I get an email saying that they will be making the hiring decision really soon, and that the start date will be in July or August.
Question: How should I respond to this latest email? Should I send another short sweet "I am still interested in this position" email, or a slightly longer one expressing how I am qualified for the job, and a good fit with the firm (stuff that I have said over and over in the interview)? Anything else I should consider in this situation? I have been looking for another job for over a year, and this one would be awesome. Actually, I need this job, so please give me legit, insightful, and awesome advice. TYIA. |

Even radio silence might be OK since they can't have any doubt about your interest - actually it might make you look less desperate.
