Feeling down, not heard back from interview

[Autumnisnearlyhere]

Just would like some reassurance /have a moan if possible..

so 20 years in a job which so far has been okay but lately over the last 2-3 gone downhill under new management. Staff do whatever they like and are not punished for it. Bullying is rife, HR don’t care etc etc. I’ve decided to finally leave and got an interview yesterday for a similar role in another company.

interview went very well , they seemed to like me, said all my skills and experience are what they are looking for said they would be in touch tomorrow (today) .

been waiting by the phone all day and nothing. So assume I haven’t got the job. Which is disappointing but one of those things. But a courtesy call to say I haven’t got the job, would that be asking too much?

a couple of previous jobs I’ve applied for (and all my skills have matched their job description) I haven’t even got my foot in the door. No communication at all, no interview. one of them I followed up with an email and still no response.

a bit low and disappointed , thinking this would be my ticket out of a toxic environment , but obviously not meant to be.

Sometimes it is the bullet dodged honestly. The better employer is out there/round the corner/next to meet.

On Friday 6th October I was not contacted when expected/told so I subsequently accepted a week’s temp placement starting 9th October xx with another placement I was called 9th Oct the very day an additional member of the team went sick with ‘depression’ after less then 6 months service to step in to their shoes expected next day. Which is simply how I got a job. I started 16th October after deciding why should I let the 9th Oct assignment down as mum said been I’ve been thoroughly used and been very miserable since l’ve no real training, learning from mistakes, no policies despite a HR person and they really now have little wonder why people don’t want to stay.
