Job Search Black Hole Why I Dont Reply To You

Job Search Black Hole Why I Dont Reply To You (Read this letter as if I was that hiring manager that isnt returning your calls and emails) Did you see the post last week about why I delete your emails? Now Ill tell you why you think I dont ever read or reply to your emails but first, you think I dont read or reply because: Im too good for you, Im too busy with more important things, Im a jerk. Thats what Ive thought before.  Ive felt brushed off, or less than the person Ive sent the email to. How could someone be so incosiderate and rude?  How hard is it to reply to an email?? Seriously. Jerks. Right?  Ive thought that. Ive felt that. And now I think Im the jerk.  Because I have over 2,200 emails in my JibberJobber email (inbox) that I havent replied to.  And I have about 12,000 emails in my gmail inbox that are just sitting there, waiting for me. Why dont I respond to them?  Here is some insight that might be helpful: I am, and I get, overwhelmed! With everything.  With life, calls, other emails, deadlines, projects, etc. I dont ignore you because Im a jerk.  Your email just falls through the cracks because Im not good at time management, and managing the inbox. Its as simple as that. WHAT THAT MEANS IS SOMETHING AMAZING: Dont give up on me. Sometimes, I all I need is a gentle nudge, or another email reminding me of the first one. Be persistent without being annoying.  Remind me, because your email might be sitting on Page 3 of my inbox, and Im not going to see it since I never get to Page 3. If you take it personal, and get offended, Im sorry. but sometimes all I need is for you to remain top-of-mind do that with a simple reminder. Cool?
