a coworker of mine recently got a promotion that i also applied for . i worked hard on my application and resume and writing to get the promotion , and they got it not me . i am seriously not happy about i have you followed up with your hr department to ask what was missing from your resume or experience that will help for next time ? i have not , i kindof do n't want to ruffle any feathers because i feel like hr 's are biased and would think i was complaining or being annoying not if you do your homework first . go in with specific questions . like , `` what can i do now to improve my chances for the next opportunity ? ''
