Stressing out. It is so bothersome when candidates, or anyone, doesn't read the email and responds.

Well, I did that in response to a dream job. So, I sent three email responses and only the last one was complete. Argh. While I hope this is not the end to my candidacy I haven't heard back. It's only been 15 hours. I so dislike the stress.

    I would let it rest and allow for consideration. The company most likely received 100s of applications, emails, not to mention internal interest. Allow them time to figure it out. If you are their DREAM CANDIDATE they will be just as focused on you. The email debacle won't destroy your chances.

    Stress can be frustrating, especially when people do not read emails properly before responding. For men, chronic stress can negatively affect health, including testosterone levels. Low testosterone can cause fatigue, irritability, and difficulty handling stress. Oral testosterone treatment can help improve mood, focus, and overall well being. https://www.rethinktestosterone.com/blog/march-madness-stress-affects-testosterone-levels-in-men
