In reality, a lot of temp or contract jobs are admin-related. So let us say a fresh grad wants to get into finance or banking. Temp jobs in a stock broking firm or an insurance company is still relevant.
If gt temp job v hard go interview. Last time I got a temp job tk 2 half day per week n gt warned.
I tk part time nw. Unrelated.

To abv poster.. hu isn't sick...I oso stressed.

I called the HR last week to enquire on the interview results, gave her my name. She said they will let me know by this week. Until now I have not receive any calls. So does it mean that I am not shortlisted?

Thanks for ur reply. I also think so but find it abit hard to accept cos I thought that the interview went fine. And also, if HR say will let me know by this week, shouldn't there be even a rejection email if I'm rejected?
