I've had 2 interviews - the first one with a manager, 2nd one with HOD. But the 2nd interview was really short because there are other candidates after me. It's been 1 week now. If I got selected, HR is supposed to call me to discuss the salary package. But so far no news. Should I text the manager asking for an update or should I just let fate decide? Because i'm quite tired of facing rejection again.

Sorry to hear this but dont give up yet! At least you know the update rather than waiting, so email them.

Send follow up email to show your interest. Maybe they in a midst of discussion, so no harm to send follow up email. All the best!

Yes you should send simple text checking for update. Understand your feeling of rejection, but at least you know the result. Gud luck!

Totally get how you feel. Maybe a polite message to the manager could show your interest? Just a quick checking, perhaps?

It's tough waiting, but it might be worth reaching out for an update. Just keep it friendly and professional.

Rejection can be hard, but keep pushing! A follow-up could remind them of your enthusiasm.

Waiting can be stressful, but remember, no news isn’t always bad news! A gentle nudge might help.

You’ve done well to get this far! If you feel comfortable, a friendly inquiry could be beneficial.

Maybe elok you tunggu sikit lagi. Sometimes selection process ni take time. Tapi if mmg dah tak boleh sabar or tunggu, then follow up je la.

It's about what feels right for you. If you think an update would ease your mind, go for it!
