Had an amazing interview, they hinted I was a frontrunner... now it's radio silence from the recruiter. Did I just imagine the whole thing?

You didn’t imagine it. One scenario: Someone loved you but the other stakeholder preferred the other applicant. Or maybe they’re busy and there’s no news. Or they lost a pitch or a piece of business is shaky. In that case, it’s them, not you.

Baffling. I had a recruiter reach to me recently from Intercom in the Bay Area, said the hiring manager reviewed my profile and wanted to connect to chat more as they think my profile is a great fit for a new role. I responded with some dates and times….then nothing. Like, what?

Going through an interview process and getting ghosted still boggles my mind.

How long has the radio silence been? If it’s under two weeks don’t sweat it.

Other than partner track, salary/benefits, and switching from coverage to general comm lit, what qualities of the move should I be thinking about as I weigh my options?

From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?

I had a call w/ a recruiter and after hearing about the job, I *really* want it. But I’m worried I priced myself out of the role. I sent my resume/portfolio after and haven’t even gotten a reply that she received it, and I’ve followed up. I’ve been getting recruiter messages offering salaries up to 120k for copy/senior copy roles (which surprised me) so I gave 110-120 as a range on the call. She hesitantly said she thought 115 would be OK. But wondering if the salary could be the issue? Thought?
