I thought I did well. They reassured me, told me I performed great, and everything seemed promising. I left the meeting feeling confident, with a sense of accomplishment. They assured me that I would hear back soon. I was hopeful, looking forward to the next steps, eager to continue. But days turned into weeks, and there was nothing—no follow-up, no communication, no updates. The silence felt deafening. I kept checking my inbox, hoping for a response, wondering if I had missed something. It’s frustrating, leaving me with a sense of uncertainty and the nagging feeling of being forgotten.
