Usually depends on the company. Some larger ones will simply say "Sorry, someone else got it.". Some companies will tell you if you ask nicely.

"Just wanted to know what I could do different next time." If the hiring manager is not too busy, they should be able to give you something.

DO NOT PAY ANYONE TO DO YOUR CV, 99% of the time its a rip off.

If you need CV writing advice, im happy to give it for free.


Just curious Deano (I'm assuming you hire people) as unfortunately I got a letter today saying that I was unsuccessful in getting a position I had interviewed for last week frown If I were to call or email the interviewer would they be able to say what it was that I did/didn't do that prevented me from getting hired? Is this something you've had asked of you too?

No problems. I recruit in the Nuclear sector for a living and you still get bloody idiots.

I had a guy on £95 an hour turn up to a Power Plant steaming drunk and got sent home. £95 an HOUR!!!!!

A quick tip that I've found helpful in the past; when you get to the end of the interview, the interviewer will almost always ask if you have any questions for them.

An excellent question to ask is: "Do you feel that I am the right person for the job?". This will give you some instant feedback as to whether you're likely to get the job or not; and if the interviewer feels you've got some weaknesses to address, this gives you the opportunity to profess how keen you are to learn, etc...

As a contractor, I've probably had more job interviews than most, and that one question has served me extremely well over the years.
