Thought I nailed the interview. They said they'd be in touch within a week...it's been crickets for three. Guess I'm officially ghosted? Do I even try to follow up at this point?

You should always try because you never know how things could turn.

5 years ago I had a fantastic cold coffee with a hiring manager who we seemingly clicked with right away. She requested I send her my resume directly and she’d put me in touch with HR to schedule an official interview. I followed up twice before getting a response from her 3 weeks later and I got the job.

Can’t imagine where I would have been if I thought to myself “she ghosted me, I guess I should move on” after the first follow-up.

Hi guys,

I've a question on what sections to put on a regular resume. I see some people are using consulting style resume for outside companies as well. Do you think it's a good idea to devide work experience by projets? Or is it better to have "projects highlights" separate from work experience.. something like: intro>functional expertise> project highlights>work experience>education?

So i have been fortunate that i have managed to go through my career without the need for a degree. I was lucky enough to have been hired by one of the worlds top consulting firms, worked with a whole lot of big clients and travelled a lot. It's gotten to the point where I am not even asked about the lack of a degree on my resume. Personally though, it bothers me. I have a whole bunch of certifications in my industry…but just no formal degree. (cont'd)
