Both my friend and I applied for the same job, one through a job hire site and I did it through their website. Neither of us heard anything so be both tried following up. Silence, no call backs, no responses to emails. Two months later I get an email that the position was filled. But you can check the status of your application and it says that neither of our applications had been viewed. I applied for another opening and it was an identical process. No one even looked at our stuff and calls to the company and emails were unanswered.
