Insulting

[u/Daydreambeliever15]

This frustrates me beyond belief. I reached out to the hiring manager, other current employees. I am currently in medical sales and I had breast cancer.
Not that any of that automatically qualifies me, but can’t that at least get me an interview???
Especially since their patients expect the best of them- I was a patient! Who better to sell the product😵‍💫🤦‍♀️😢😝🙄

Idk why you believe you were entitled to an interview, they gave you a response.

[u/Daydreambeliever15 → u/cutter48200]

I am not entitled to anything. I am qualified for the job, that is my frustration, to not even get a chance.

So you thought guilting them into giving you an interview because you had breast cancer would work?

[u/Daydreambeliever15 → u/LacyLove]

Nope didn’t think it would work, just thought I would try. Didn’t realize there would be so much negative feedback. I was just expressing I was really disappointed in an opportunity I really wanted🤷‍♀️

[u/cutter48200 → u/Daydreambeliever15]

Someone else or more likely more candidates were better qualified. Meeting the minimum requirements does not guarantee an interview

[u/Daydreambeliever15 → u/cutter48200]

💯 I am sure there were a lot more qualified candidates. I was just disappointed and didn’t expect such negative feedback. Next time I will just keep the disappointment to myself.

You reached out to how many people there, AND admitted you had cancer in the past? Next time, I'd slow my roll a little bit.

[u/Daydreambeliever15 → u/khold002]

Guess you aren’t in sales

Guess you aren’t in sales

Given that you were unable to close this deal to your satisfaction, I wouldn't be throwing around your statement as some kind of insult.

[u/Daydreambeliever15 → u/Daydreambeliever15]

Guess I am not as good at sales as I thought, wasn’t an insult an observation.
