For those that do interviews, if you know you will not interview a candidate a second time, do you ever tell them that someone will schedule a second interview so that you don’t have to break the news then? I’m wondering why so many people suggest there will be another interview before ghosting.

I think some interviewers say it out of politeness or because they don’t make the final decision themselves. Still, it creates false hope when they imply there’s a next step and then disappear. I’d rather they keep it neutral with something like “the team will follow up” than suggest another interview if it’s not likely.

I hadn’t thought of that

Although Amazon has instituted a hiring freeze and layoffs are probably on their way, I went through the loop for a security engineer position at AWS. Before I attended the final interviews, Amazon placed the hiring freeze and called me to ask if I wanted to go ahead or cancel my application. I decided do go ahead Right now I'm waiting for their response and the position I applied to changed from "under consideration" to "no longer under consideration". Thoughts?
