By Alison Doyle. Alison founded CareerToolBelt. Learn about our editorial policies. Updated on May 21, Brown, Thank you for taking the time to interview me for the Marketing Assistant position last week. Again, thank you for your time and consideration. Another part of looking prepared is to appear to be calm and confident. Do this by picking out your interview outfit well in advance, getting enough sleep the night before and showing up a few minutes early.

A miscommunication could have led to you not getting the job. For example, the employer may have given you specific directions that you found challenging to complete or didn't see. Whenever an employer reaches out to you, make sure to reread what they send.

If you ever have any questions, make sure to politely ask for some clarification. If you're a qualified candidate, they will be happy to help you follow the directions correctly. Even after interviewing multiple candidates, an employer may decide to give an existing employee a promotion.

Prior to the hiring process, they may have had this employee in mind but still had to post the job publicly. Hiring internally tends to be a safer bet for employers since they already know the work ethic and personality of their employees. Also, onboarding existing employees tends to be easier since they know the company's policies and might be familiar with the position already. After the interview, the employer may have checked your online profiles. That's why it's important to set all of your personal social media accounts to private or make sure to have a professional presence.

When posting online, only share appropriate photos and links. Likewise, be mindful of what you are commenting on other's posts. If the job required you to have a large online following, maybe the employer felt like you needed more follower engagement.

Explore the company's team page on its website to see how current employees present themselves online. When you choose job references, it's important to pick people who you trust to give you high praise. When choosing a previous employer, think about what they are likely to say about you.

Only ask employers to be your reference if you excelled in your role and left the job on good terms. It's ideal to choose people you have positive relationships with. The company may not be able to afford your required salary or halted the hiring process altogether due to budget constraints. Hiring new employees may be low on their list, which is why you may not hear back from them in these situations.

They may be busy finding new ways to increase their revenue and get the business back to normal. Follow these steps to professionally ask an employer why you didn't get a job offer:. After learning that you didn't get the job, start to reflect on how your interview went. Think about the following things:. No one wants to give that kind of feedback. They will look to communicate this information to you proactively as they help you navigate the interview process.

This will generally take place over a phone conversation. Calling to ask for feedback from someone not expecting to have the conversation can make them uncomfortable. The last thing you want to do is to put them on the spot. You can treat the hiring manager in the same way you would the internal recruiter. Instead compose a brief and well crafted email. When composing your email, be concise and positive. Make sure you convey that you really enjoyed the interview process. The tone of your email to the internal recruiter may be very different than that of the hiring manager.

Your third-party recruiter will usually want to speak with you right after an interview to get your feedback. Clients usually offer agency recruiters feedback at the end of the day or at the end of the week so they can discuss their thoughts on multiple candidates at once.
