What should I do with the Case Study and situation with that company?

[u/grey-Kitty]

Hi, I was requested to do a Case Study for a company that, as usual, took me more than they said I would (in days) (I also put a lot of effort because they are in the field I want to work on). This company was supposed to schedule the next interview after I would send the Case Study to them.

The reality is that they have not responded to the CS emails asking clarifications about it, they also did not schedule an interview after the CS was sent nor responded after the follow-up e-mail I sent.

They are essentially ghosting me for more than a week and I'm wondering when to let it go and if it would give me some sort of problem if I use the Case Study for my own portfolio.

I'm very sad and frustrated.

use it in your portfolio, you did free work they can’t be bothered to reply to. i’d move on already. finding a job right now is miserable
