Will candidates who are shortlisted after interview receive a call from HR telling them verbally that they are shortlisted, before the long wait for the HR to get management approval and come up with pay package?

I went for interview for Constituency Manager position in end June 2014. I called HR to check on my status in July and even recently and was always told "pending management approval". Does this means my chances are low?

think u better ask HR give gentle nudge to mgmt

incase this is already our of mgmt's mind

"Our of mgmt's mind"?

i meant "out of mgmt mind" as in they might have forgotten got hiring pending since nobody is reminding one another

good to call them every month until you get an answer. pending pending because if there are cheaper and better candidates, then u are out.

Hi guys, I was interviewed by a Consituency Director. A young guy in his early 30s. I am assuming Consituency Director is not a 'real director'? I went to government directory to check & there seems to have Directors in HQ also. I am assuming those are the real deal. And how senior is the General Manager of a CDC?

U went interview for CM post? When did u go for the interview? GM is the biggest I think.

Hmm when i went to the interview, they didn't even intro themselves. Just start the interview straight. So i also don't know who is who. omg -.-

usually they hire CM after they complete school. lets say they employ one when he/she is 23. work 3-5 yrs to climb up to CD is very common. CD is just the highest in CC itself, as a whole, you can say CD in public sector is equivalent to a manager.
