every other week till you get a response for like six-ish weeks and then move on.

CD1 is right that they are likely not interested so don't get your hopes up, but I think it's worth following up so they're aware of the expectation to be decent and close the loop. it is not that hard.

I’m a new analyst at a PE firm, and my associate keeps blaming me for things she does wrong. Like she will tell me I made the wrong change, even though she is the one who changed it. Or in calls with other people, she won’t take responsibility for things that she told me to do that the other person calls out as wrong. How can I handle this situation without making her mad but also not letting her step all over me?
