A. I'm sorry to hear about your experience. It's frustrating when communication goes unanswered, especially after being promised a response. There could be various reasons for the lack of response, such as a high volume of applicants, internal changes, or unforeseen circumstances. It's important to follow up politely and professionally to inquire about the status of your application.
