You can't possibly blame us; some applicants are bad at accepting rejections. So most times to save our skin, we keep quiet.

Very very unprofessional! Patients are terrible about accepting bad news but Drs dish them out without fear. I once saw a Doc coldly tell a mum her child has polio and will not walk again. so you hr peeps tell us the truth lets be gone

It's been two years now since I was promised by the HR of an oil and gas company in Lekki that I would be gotten back to in two weeks time................... I'm still patiently waiting for their reply, I guess they are not done reviewing my application. undecided

A friend called to tell me he finally got the job he applied for at an oil and gas firm after waiting for 3 years. He was all excited, but i thought that was a waste of a person's skills. He must have forgotten everything he learnt in school by the time the job came. How crude is that?

BTW, I haven't experience that Yet. I have always been selected for placement after being attended.
1 week Is too short to get your mind off it, especially when you're idle.

But the profession doesn't necessarily demand 'rejection' mails MUST be sent. At times a HR person may want to keep his/her options open by not sending straightforward rejections.
And too, company policies should be taken consideration of. You could be sued!
Personally I send something like this:
"Thank you for sending your application in response to our advertisement for Bleep. We are unable to offer you an interview at this time. We appreciate your interest in our company, and wish you much success in your future endeavors."

That response is an outright rejection. If I get such response I can bring closure to that job hunt. And its a fair enough response. The most irritating o e is when your colleagues send mails along the lines of "we will get back to you" when there is no immediate or remote plan to do so.

The truth is, recruitment is a process and the speed of the process depends on many factors like company policy, business direction, management decisions and what have you. Go through the thread and you see testimonies of people who later got the same job months or even years later after receiving the message the OP posted. As a HR person, I always advise people to be patient with companies when they are recruiting, it's always a process that depends on many factors... My current job took abt 7 months from test stage to starting with the company. It's a process, we need to understand this and be patient. Of course while being patient nothing stops you from trying out other applications too... May God deliver us from the hopelessness of the Nigerian situation... May He continue to make way for us...

Nigerian HR staff are the worst set of corporate staff you can ever deal with. 97% of them will not even acknowledge your application not to talk of sending an application status email.

Useless set of people. Quote me anywhere.
