After I apply to companies, I’ve been receiving emails from them saying they’re interested and to send my availability. Once I respond with dates/times, I never hear back from them. What’s going on! Anyone else experience this too?

I am experiencing this too! Recruiters are also reaching out to me about opportunities, and once I reply that I’m interested and provide availability, they ghost me. Very strange and frustrating.

Ghosted always means they are not interested snd found someone else . Or sucks and they are better ways to handle it.

I find it odd because it’s from the actual company I applied to, not recruiters. These are HR people who responded to my application/resume. It’s so annoying!

Yes, I’ve experienced this from people working at the companies themselves (HR and hiring managers). Ghosting is a thing. Sad but part if the process.

Yes, and in many cases it seems to be taking forever to hear back from them either way. I can't tell if I'm being ghosted or if they're just understaffed/super busy with other things.

Sometimes they are still evaluating the candidates for final list. Plus they have to schedule interviews based on the hiring interviewers availability as well. It is a sad thing but a reality. You should not feel shy to reach out and ask on the progress. Nothing wrong with it.

I’ve had radio silence from a small investment bank for about a week now. I’ve completed several rounds of interviews, but last Thursday the firm reposted the job I’ve been interviewing for. On Friday the headhunter said that they’re not sourcing new candidates and it’s probably just LinkedIn automatically refreshing the listing. She said they had a busy week last week but will make a final decision this week - is the delay and radio silence a bad sign or is this typical for experienced hiring?
