I applied for a position 3 weeks ago, and the recruiter told me it was filled, but they'll definitely keep me in mind for future opportunities. Is it worth following up, or is that just a polite rejection? I'm not sure if I should send a check-in email or just keep applying elsewhere.

Definitely keep applying elsewhere. If you had a good rapport with the recruiter and you want to stay in touch, that's good. Check in with them if you feel like it, but don't count on it leading to anything. It may, but you need to keep working on other opportunities.

I always feel like when they say that, it is a polite rejevtion. That being said, it wouldn't hurt to follow up. You never know and I think it is a good way to build a relationship with that recruiter.

I'm still waiting for that call from someone who said that they would "keep me in mind".

Hi all,

Recently I have completed probation in Accenture, and got offer from HCL, Is there any chance to revise the package? because I have completed only 6 months in Accenture, If I compare CTC of both there is huge difference it's round 10 lacs, HCL offering 60 per hike.

I was on bench in Accenture since 45 days so i started searching outside.

I’ve only slept with one person, my wife. I have not openly shared this with anyone because there’s a stigma that I “settled” or I don’t have numbers on the board like a man should. I’m not overly religious, so that was never a driver in the equation. I admit, I do think about the “what if” every once in awhile but I’m honestly getting to the age where I feel I’m beyond my prime anyhow.
