Step 8Response rates
It is not uncommon that you will not hear back from a company. There could be many reasons for this - the company may be too busy right now, or it could be that they think you are a 15 year old with an AC/DC tee shirt and $10.
Some things i've found:
- some companies will respond only to "in-system" emails in Alibaba etc.
- other companies will only respond to their real email
- other companies you might only get to by AIM
- its pretty random!
- many companies will check the domain name for your email address, or the website you list in your sig. its pretty much the only thing they know about you. if you only have a yahoo.com email and nothing else you probably will not get as high a response rate as if you have an email from ibm.com and matching website.
