How do you keep your soul intact when you have to ghost 80% of your pipeline? Does that ever weigh on you? I don’t like becoming the kind of person who disappears, even if it’s unintentional.

It does weigh on people — you’re human. Unfortunately, high-volume recruiting often forces prioritization. A few things that can help: set expectations early, batch updates when possible, and create simple templates to close the loop. Protecting your integrity matters, even when the system makes it hard.

Our employee satisfaction survey is tied to our performance goals. Meaning, if we rate management badly, we cannot meet 10% of our goals which in turn affects our bonuses and raises. We asked HR but they didn’t do anything about it. Is this normal? Is this legal? If not, what else can we do about it?

I have a friend who was let go a few months into his first job after college (reason: the manager felt like he wasn't grasping the training content to the level that was expected). He's worried about if he should put the experience on his resume anyway, if he does will recruiters ask why he had such a short time at this place, and what will recruiters think if he explains he was let go. What are some things recruiters expect from candidates in this situation to continue considering them?

When you recruiters say at the end of a 15 min call.
“I will get back to you by the end of this week” does that really mean “your not right for this position”? Because this whole thing is a waste of time.
