I have applied 8 times and I have only heard back once by email asking if I was still interested in position. The recruiter was interested in more in wages than what my skills were. I have not heard back since. Not sure what went wrong but it would be nice if they would respond regardless of whether or not your application interests them. Receiving feedback can be a good thing, it can give you insight on what to work on to improve your chances of getting the position you seek. I'll keep trying.
