Does anybody know why recruiters do that thing where they reach out to you multiple times for a role only for you to finally respond, and they go radio silent on you? I feel like I’m on a dating app

Yes. It’s infuriating and puzzling.

It’s terrible. Sometimes it doesn’t seem there’s any accountability or incentive to follow up. Mostly a result, I think, of being in a buyer’s market and recruiters being perpetually slammed, from what I understand. But agencies’ staffing issues shouldn’t be a candidate’s problem.

Because by the time you finally respond they've already gotten numerous other responses they're already working with. Those multiple messages you're getting are automated with a cadence, likely. Respond right away if interested to learn more and if they do reply and you talk, you can still walk away at any time.

One job I spoke to the recruiter over a week ago and haven’t heard anything back when she said she’d follow up in 3 days. Another job, I spoke to the leadership team almost a week ago and haven’t heard from them about how it went. I sent two follow up emails to them both. Should I just not even bother?

Hi friends of fishbowl! A year ago I told myself no more agencies. Then I got a job at another agency and I’m basically hating my life more than ever right now. This place is not good for me mentally and I’ve only been here for 90 days. I should’ve listened to my gut but here we are. So my question is what job titles should I be targeting as a senior project manager if I want to go to to client side?
