Why is it that when you go for an interview and there are multiple candidates for the job and when you don't get the job they don't have the common courtesy to call you and tell you they chose someone else? I personally have a hard time getting a job because of my "patchy" work history. I just wish that there was a way to erase your past work history and start over. Does anyone else have this problem, or is it just me???? I am on the verge of depression and pulling my hair out. I need a job!!!!!

And from experience as a hiring manager it's impossible to contact all the people who didn't make it manually. You can work an automated way to do it.But really most places.Just post if you don't hear from us, it's because we chose another candidate.

What about those who go through multiple interviews? Surely at that point there are not that many candidates. And a simple "thank you for your time, we have decided to move forward with another candidate" would be decent

No way to erase your work history, but you can change your work continuity going forward. Find a place, stick with it and show growth. After that, the patchy work history will no longer matter as much.

That's what i was trying to do... until i was made redundant :-(

Are you me BJE? I just went through three rounds of interviews only to be ghosted after. Even travelled out of town for one of them.
I've also moved around companies a lot, all explainable- moving countries, post graduate degree, being made redundant.
I am asked about the moves during interviews. I wish i could show the interviewers my past performance reviews cause those are stellar! :-/
