Have you ever been ghosted by a recruiter? I recently had a company’s in-house recruiter reach out about a role, we agreed on a time to connect, and I shared my email and cell number, but then…nothing. No invite, no call. It’s frustrating, but I’m curious if this happens to others too. Do you follow up, or shrug it off?

Follow up still, although I do see quite a few stories of it being common now. I want to give the benefit of the doubt at least once, and then I leave it after that.

That makes sense. I think giving them one chance to respond is fair and after that, it’s probably a sign to move on and not take it personally.

Yep this happens quite frequently these days. I would shrug it off and keep moving forward. Recruiters are so bad about ghosting right now.

Glad to hear that I’m not the only one getting ghosted. It’s frustrating, but I agree, sometimes it’s best to just shrug it off and keep going.

Constantly. I try to follow up kindly, but doesn’t always work out. I wish they would at least let you know they’re not interested. Kinda feels like dating at this point.

I totally agree! Especially when they’re the ones who reached out first. The least they could do is let you know if they can’t make the call.

I need some legit feedback on what is it like to be a UXD at companies like Accenture?
They claim to do a lot of research oriented designs, as everyone. But is that really the case or it's like some other service based companies where the UX is almost vague, and happens mostly based on what the managers think to be good?

Does UX have any value or it's just drafting wireframes based on ideations by the managers and then UI designs?
