I've applied for numerous positions at a NGO called IREX. (http://www.irex.org), a well-known international organization. Despite having submitted my name for more positions than I can count, I have never received back any type of notice, good or bad, as to the status of my candidacy. I don't necessarily expect to be offered an interview for even just one out of every 100 or so jobs for which I apply, but most employers will at least send you a rejection letter whether or not you were short-listed for an interview. There's a notice on IREX's website which says "no phone calls please". All of this has me wondering whether the job vacancies they advertise really exist in the first place (a lot of NGO positions are contigent on funding, grants, etc., which I understand) My question is, do I risk pissing them off and call them anyway? (note: in order to remain anonymous, I've changed my real name as it appears in Yahoo! Answers as this organization still has my resume active in their files
