Hi Sam,
You have everything a company could want, my only advice is to polish your shoes.... that REALLY does impress people!!!!

[s162216]

You would have thought that within 12 days a major company like Pfizer would at least tell their job candidates their decision as I know I went on the last day they offered, but I've not heard a peep from them, and I don't know when I will as I was never given the opportunity to ask anybody when they would have made their decision by (The last bit was an 'informal team chat' with members of the team I would be working with if I got the job, and I didn't really feel I could ask them as it wasn't their sort of area). To be honest I am starting to get a bit annoyed as its prolonging the agony of waiting.

Sam, if it were me I would call the HR department and chase them up!
Just ask them when you will hear from them, because you have other irons in the fire and need a decision from Pfizer.
I feel for you, this must be very stressful.
Good Luck - John

Hi Sam

I had a similar situation, i applied for a job in early June and started 2ND sep and the wait seems like an eternity especially when you put your hopes on it, i had given up on it when i got the call saying the jobs mine,

Try what John said and hopefully you will get some good news, these companies don't seem to be quick in replying these days.

Hi Sam.

It's so frustrating but hopefully a gentle push from you might do the trick. They must know that it's an anxious time. Good luck.

I applied for a job with 'Oncimmune' (a company which create antibody based tests for tumours) a few weeks ago, and got a call from them on Thursday offering me an interview, which I have arranged for the 20th. Even better the job is based on the City Hospital site in Nottingham so I would love it if I could get the job (I liked living in Nottingham, and the IVIG system over on the QMC site is great as its very sociable and friendly).

Sounds perfect Sam, good luck, you deserve it!

So hope you get it. We absolutely agree with John so fingers crossed for you.
