Just came back here to give a quick testimony—I followed your examples listed (especially the tip of giving the interviewer an article or resource they may find interesting) and they got back to me with a job offer; the main interviewer even quoted that they really appreciated one of the articles that I sent to her. Thanks for your help! ♥

Omy God thank you so much. I'm a teenager and If I hadn't seen this video, I wouldn't have thought of calling McDonald's back, and now after I called them, they called me and asked me to bring proofs of my identity tomorrow! ❤️❤️ thank you! That was my first job interview too!

I got the job!!! I've been following your channel for months and I found my dream job! My last interview was amazing and now I'm working for a company that I truly respect and I can be myself.

Thank you for wisdom and your wonderful advice! I love your personality, channel and all of your puns! 😁❤ I am so excited for my first day!!

Really glad you mentioned when NOT to follow up post interview. I interviewed Thursday last week. They’ll have a decision Wednesday this week.

[GlenHackney]

Thank you! So many questions answered, priceless!

[jluban]

I would like to thank you. I watched a bunch of your videos before the interview and guess what, I got the job!!! Your videos have a great energy, good examples, aren't boring, and there's no waffle. Very helpful. Thank you!

I totally missed this one for some reason but love it!

Glad you said did this one. I often think my "pleasantly persistent" approach is too forward... Definitely appreciate the insight on this.

Thank you Madeline! After i sent my follow up E-Mail, i got the job! And little tips for me, dont forget to write down your phone number as well after the signature, so the HR can directly contact you. Thank you once again Madeline 💚

To be honest with you, if you haven’t heard back within a reasonable time, please walk away. Start applying elsewhere. There are other companies that will call you back if they really want to hire you.

I suggest all job hunters also check their spam or junk email folders often. Sometimes your incoming email might get put in the spam folder.

Exactly what I needed to hear, thanks Madeline :)

[jayu]

You have great branding and high quality content. First time seeing a video

[turquoiseashley]

This worked!!! Got my offer today!! Wow, thank you so much!!

[michellesantos]

Thank you this helps. I appreciate it. More power.

[Mr_Iain]

Excellent videos! I'm taking away a ton of insight and ideas. The way you explain things, and the ideas, are perfect. thanks!

The employer may also be wasting your time for their own selfish purposes, such as being able to demonstrate a diverse applicant pool. I've had internal recruiters reach out to me on Monday and on Wednesday state that an offer had just been extended to someone else. I've also gone through a full-day panel interview process, ghosted for 6 weeks and then learned that the duties were given to those of an internal candidate who had interviewed me.

Sounds like the last one who sent the lovely email still didn’t get the job ha
