Hey guys! I’ve been getting emails from Cisco every week to fill out a form to ask if I am still interested for security solutions spring internship. I’ve clicked Yes each time but I never get contacted for anything further. Should I be holding out hope for Cisco or should I move on? @cisco

You should definitely see where this takes you. Emailing you forms is probably their way of contacting you before your big callback. You're application is most likely still being processed.

I'd try reaching out to the recruiter or hiring manager. It sounds like maybe there's a technical glitch, and you'd hate to miss out over something so trivial. Good luck!

That’s the issue. The portal doesn’t have any information regarding the hiring manager. All I keep getting are the forms that ask if I’m still interested.

Oh! I’m really interested in this opportunity so I keep hoping, thinking somehow if I’d hold out a little bit longer I might get it.

You can still expect a positive outcome. But the chances are pretty low. Did you ask for an update?

Hey Gente, Im applying for jobs and I wanted to get others opinion on the race part of the application process. As an indigenous LatinX I worry that if I put indigenous it won’t tick the “diversity” box for the algorithm or recruiters. I work with (not in) the I&D dept at my company and our target recruiting groups don’t include or mention indigenous. Any recruiters here that have insight?

I believe they’re interviewing other candidates. Does that make me second or third choice? And does the fact that I’m working with a recruiter hurt my chances of being selected due to the commission? Should I hold out for the offer or is 1+ week a sign that I won’t be selected?
