Is it now normal practice not to receive a response after interview?

Is it normal practice now to not receive a response from a face to face interview if you are unsuccessful?  I recently qualified in Level 3 and trying to get into HR.  I feel that this is rude and unprofessional that I have attended two interviews without having any response especially as these are for HR positions.

  • It should not be normal practice but sadly it is becoming increasingly common in my experience.

    There was an interesting interview on radio Scotland this week where employers were waxing lyrical about the rudeness of candidates for interview not turning up or worse yet accepting a job then not attending day 1 with no form of contact. I agree that both of these are unacceptable but so is doing the same to jobseekers.

    Recruitment is time consuming but so is applying for countless jobs and attending interviews where the decision not to hire you is often made before you even open your mouth. It does however build your resilience so keep trying and something will come along for you.
