I've been looking for work lately and getting told the same thing by the employment offices around me (job search assistance).
It feels so bizarre and pushy to email back after an application/interview. I showed up and did my part, the balls in their court now, I'm just waiting for a response. To reach out again seems like I'm leaning over their shoulder and asking 'have you made a decision yet??? How about now, can I have a job now?'
They already know what I want, what I can offer, and how to reach me. What more do they need?
Their ego stroked, apparently.
