I had a group interview last Thursday and I think I did pretty good but now I'm waiting to hear back. I'm curious to know how long it takes them to hire their workers. This is a store already in exsistence (not a brand new store) and they were looking to hire more part time people and seasonal people as well. Thanks in advance for your help.

The position is for a staff attorney of a large publicly traded company. Last year I was able to get an interview but was not one of the ones selected for the position. These openings are frequent and I usually apply each time but I have not been granted another interview. Should I keep trying or do you think I have been ruled out for future consideration?

I have always worked hard and gone the extra mile to get things done. But for some reason, no one seems to think anything of it. I havent got a raise in two years and have taken over responsibilities when we had to cut a position. Do they really think that low of me? I know i should move on to a different company, but there just doesnt seem to be anything out there right now. If you know of anyone hiring in the HR field, please let me know!!! I have been doing this for seven years!!! I know its not me! but wow, it truly effects a persons work when they feel unappreciated!!!

I have worked for an organization more than twenty years.
I would like to know how to respond in writing to not getting a promotion
for which I believe I was qualified.
Please don't answer if you want to insult me?
Not all employers are fair and if that is your position don't bother to answer.
The job I hold is significant and I appreciate it.
My goal is not to critic my employer. If you don't have the ability to answer in a sensitive v and helpful manner don't answer.
This is not a "sour grapes"

I heard from some people that people who turn in applications wearing jeans get a "B.J." stamp on their application, which means it goes to get shredded. Is this true?

I had a telephonic interview [through a referal] with a person from overseas for about half an hour., It went well. I didnt hear from them for about 9 days, so I called up the company's HR here, the guy said he had sent me a mail asking for additional details. As I hadnt received it, I said so, and he offered to forward it to me again., But its been two days now and there hasnt been a word or mail since then., Should I email him again? I am clueless as to whether I made it through and why the silence/delay in process.
Please help!! its a very good role with good opportunities and involves a lot of responsibilities, and I really look forward to it.,

example: I work for a large company in a house for disabled individuals and we get paid for our hour lunch which means that we can not leave the house unless with a consumer or for other errends. Just recentely it was brought to our attention that we were not susposed to be eating fast food weather it be bringing it with us on shift or going to get it or ordering it beacuse it is "Not fair to the consumers and it is like telling them that their food is not good enough when we eat fast food around them". ALSO, we do not even have a seperate place in the home where we can even go to eat our food we have to eat in their kitchen (which is really not a problem)

I work for a childcare center and I had got written up in the past for attendance issues. I have a child with medical needs and am a single mother. I need to take him to appts and such. They knew this when hired...anyways I missed a half day last Friday to take him to the Dr. I came in and they were fuming! Then on Monday the director came up to me and said "we have to have a meeting regarding this". Monday goes by..no meeting..Tues(today goes by) no meeting...Rumors are going around that they are waiting for HR to come to the building to fire me blah blah...are they playing games? What is going on? I want to know if I am being fired or not there. I have other opportunities I can be pursuing. Should I tell them "either tell me what is up or I quit? Ideas or opinions??

I'm applying for paralegal jobs in NYC (other boroughs, etc). Will I still be able to get call backs if I say:

I can begin work on (month/date/07)

or will I get less responses from employers? that's basically 3 weeks from the time I apply for the job....is that something people do? reason is, I need that time to get an apt. I'm in NJ but I don't wanna say that's why I need 3 weeks for a start date.
