Replying back to emails (after an interview or call)

M

Hello,

As a general member of the public, I am interested to know how the profession (CIPD), if it has any rules or ethics or best, practises that it expects its members as in HR capacity to respond back to emails from those who had their interviews conducted or looking to just follow up and receive a response either positive or negative.

Can I get any reference to the text from any manuals or code of conduct or or any reference that supports or not supporting that practise? 

Cause to me that is very negligent, even if HR reply to 10% of the candidates out of 1000 as a rule of thumb can be accepted (would not take even one-two hours, I know it for sure even if it is general feedback or specific to the candidate) but not replying at all even after multiple followups is absurd.

Thanks

  • Hello,

    Like Keith said, there is no rules or regulations about this. I would say it's very poor for you to have taken the time to go in for an interview and not hear back one way or another, this has happened to me before and it is incredibly frustrating (especially if you have gone in for pre-employment tests/second interviews etc.,).

    If no one (HR or Management) can pick up the phone to tell you the outcome of your interview, then maybe it's not a place you would want to be working in anyway.

    Best of luck with your job search.
