> I, in my usually procrastinating ways, put these off for so long that replying to the person at that point would be rude (imagine getting a rejection email months after applying to a job, when you’ve all but forgotten about it) It's happened to me before. Yeah, it's a bit rude and bewildering. But once a few months have gone by, it's difficult not to move on. After that point, it was kind of a cute thing I'd mention to my friends ("They finally told me they weren't going to hire me a few months after I applied. Isn't that crazy!")
