Interactive Indeed, Glassdoor, or Monster would be great


I would like sites like Indeed, Glassdoor, and Monster to a have interaction with the recruiter or HR on their sites. The ability to message the recruiter, ask questions. It's just submit resume and cover letter. Many times there's no names or company names. You have no idea which HR person or recruiter to reach out to on Linkedin. Many HR won't accept invitations on LinkedIn, it's the only way to ask questions. I have asked questions in my invitations and received no answers just an accepted invite. I have used the cover letter section on in Indeed to ask questions, I didn't get any answers. It's not fair that only the HR get to message you when they're interested in you.

Interactive Indeed, Glassdoor, or Monster would be great.

Job Summary

11/12/- 11/16/2018


This week I applied for 5 jobs.
Tweaked some resumes on job sites.
I was rejected by 2 employers.


First heartbreak
I was chatting back and forth with the recruiter. Set up an interview. I invited the interviewer and recruiter to connect on LinkedIn. I thought the interview went great. I went home excited. I was anxious all weekend. Kept checking my email and LinkedIn. I couldn't take the suspense anymore.

I reached out to the whole instigator. What happened? They hired someone internally.


Second heartbreak
I applied for a job in Sheboygan, I got a rejection email from that job.


Third heartbreak, almost heartbreak
I had an interview with a staffing agency 2 weeks ago. I was waiting for an interview with one of their clients.

I sent an email to the recruiter I interviewed with. I got a quick email back. That the recruiter I was talking to, was no longer working for that staffing agency.


Then I got the idea to set up another interview with a different recruiter at that same office.

I really dared myself to go. I don't trust this agency yet. I didn't like one of the clients they were going to send me to. But it's time to do something about my situation. I never know if I can do the job unless I look at it and try it. I thought this interview went well and I felt good.


Not a bad week of action, considering I stayed at home and applied for jobs with my phone from my bed. I wasn't really lazy.


I was so busy. I forgot I set up 2 interviews for the same time and day. I had to cancel the other because it was farther and snow was coming.


One job online application had an avatar HR, it made me do math and reading tests, to complete my application.


I just made an appointment for a phone interview as I wrote this post.

HR Dream

I forgot a dream I had the night before.

It was about a job interview.

The HR lady came to my house with pajamas on and hopped on my bed. It was like a slumber party.

Don't remember what we discussed or did. I think I stopped the dream. Thought it might hurt my interview.

I wish a job interview could be fun.

Is there a best time to call HR?

I did some research, this is from an article from The Bagg Group 
"The best times to call are first thing in the morning, between 8 am. and 9 am and end-of-day between 4 pm and 5 pm."

I called a potential employer, between 8 and 9 am. During my call, I received 2 calls from other potential employers. 👍
