Thanks, Corp IT.

Busy day indeed. Car #2 got inspected, rubber roof flushing fixed, a jerb discussed. Also, trying to fix a buddy's beaten mountain bike.

OK, I gotta vent. Last Thursday afternoon I had an amazing phone interview. We completely clicked, chatted for 20 minutes. Call ended with him saying “this sounds great, you would be a perfect fit. Let me run this by my supervisor, and then we can make a plan to move forward”.
great!
ok, since then I was completely ghosted.
I sent a “thanks for chatting with me” email Thursday, and I sent him a follow up email this morning, nothing.
this is for a serious sales job.
Am I right to be feeling pretty disappointed?
Maybe the wheels turn slow?

This a corporate job?

If so, then yes, the wheels turn sloooooooow. They'll fire you lickity split, but hiring can take weeks or even months in cases. It can be incredibly frustrating.

It’s a small, family company of about 40 people. My role would be regional sales.
first ‘real’ job I have applied for in 20 years, I have always been an entrepreneur.
