Ask the Expert: Should you contact an employer about a position you've applied for?

Expert Matt Trainum answers a question about reaching out to employers when there has been no communication regarding the job posting or your application.

Matt offers that a lack of communication is not about the candidate, it is about the HR office and their system. In higher ed, it is not uncommon that you will not get responses from jobs that you apply for, remember that this is an administrative issue not a personal issue.
