Intro: Not hearing back is frustrating, but the reason is usually simple.
1. Your CV didn’t match the job
Recruiters scan for keywords.
2. Too much information
Long CVs get skipped.
3. Missing basic details
Phone number, location, or email errors.
4. Applying too late
Jobs fill fast.
5. When to follow up
A polite message after a week can help.
Summary: Most missed interviews come from CV mismatches or timing.
