Just email them?
I’m of the belief that Karma is the realest virtue out. With that said, it takes less than 2 mins to structure a polite & punctual email so why even consider ghosting?
I would recommend informing them that you are no longer interested, rather than just not showing up. You get to be not interested, it’s never a good look to No-show.
Don’t burn bridges no matter how random or obscure. At least give some sort of heads up.
I defended a guy at a house party fight one random night years ago (some drunk guy randomly got in his face over nothing). 3 weeks later I interviewed for a job at Jimmy Johns and guess who was the GM. Got the job real quick.
(Absolutely true story)
yeah, I did it once because in the first round they were an hour late and I drove two hours.
Scheduled the second round, told them I was coming, and ghosted them.
I just have called or emailed that I’m Cancelling and not interested in rescheduling/further pursuing
Pro
I just backed out of the process for a job I applied to without reading the full JD (TL:DR, read more than the title 😀). It’s not hard to send a note saying things have changed.
Helpful hint - if you use gmail, add +companyname to your email when applying. Most ATS aren’t smart enough to pick up on this, so if I see another job I want at that company I’ll add a “1” to the company name like it never even happened (e.g. jdoe+acme @gmail, jdoe+acme1@gmail, etc.)
This is the most confusing thing I ever read
Agreed with the above. Plus it’s a small world and you never know when you could cross paths with those same people.
Just tell them. It took you longer to post here. Treat people how you would want someone to treat you. How would you feel if someone didn’t show up for you?
