What's the longest a business/organization has taken to get back to you on a job application?
I just got a phone call about a job I applied for about 2-1/2 months ago, at a local hospital, and she asked me if I was still interested, and, I'm like, no, I accepted a job offer from my current employer (you know, one of those strange individuals that actually responds to applications in a prompt and courteous manner because they actually want to hire people), and have been working for them this whole time that you were twiddling your thumbs thinking about it, I'm not available. (Okay, I said it to her nicer than that.)
If I don't hear back from an employer in 1-2 weeks after applying and submitting my resume, I write it off and assume they either don't want to hire me or found someone else better.
