[ffffruit]

I have had a similar experience when applying for a graduate job in a satellite comms. company in London. I got a call literally eight months later, thanking me for my application and that its being considered. They claimed I would have an answer within the next month. They never called me back and I found a much better job in the mean time; out of courtesy gave them a ring to let them know I am not interested in the position (this is t+1 year since applying) - they told me a decision had not been met yet and were even 'angry' on me leading them on and not cancelling the application earlier.
