Not cold called. Get anywhere from 3-10 LinkedIn messages per week; more often than not, for the same 1-2 jobs.

Phone calls? Those are rare. I will say, the last time I was cold called by a recruiter it did lead to me taking that job and lateraling, but when it first happened I took the call on a whim because I had a moment—previously I had always ignored recruiter phone calls and been annoyed by them. I get emails from recruiters at least once a day though.

8 to 10 a week

Ideally I would make 30 a day, but most days I barely make more than seven or eight. I never send emails or linkedin messages.

None. I'm on LinkedIn. I thought that was the best way to go about to get recognized and land a new job.

Maybe 1 phone call a week, countless emails

I get more LinkedIn messages than phone calls. When the real estate market is hot, I get 5+ messages a week. When the real estate market is slow (like now), I’m lucky if I get 1 message a month.

Phone calls? Maybe once a month or every couple weeks. I mostly get a lot of emails and some Linkedin messages.

On average probably one/day now. For a little while I was getting between 2-5 per day on my work line. It drove me insane

Rare to get a call. 2-3 Linkedin cold messages a month maybe on average.

This year, it’s been a couple of calls per week but mostly from one recruiter. I also get 5-10 InMails on LinkedIn per month.

Like one a month maybe but a ton of emails.

I applied for a job at Visa and was contacted the same day. A few days later I had a 30-minute screening interview with the hiring manager. I knew I was very early in the process since the job had only been posted for a few days. It's been 3 weeks and I haven't heard back, even after reaching out to the recruiter. Have I been ghosted or is there still hope? Does anyone at Visa have insights? Looks like there are a ton of jobs posted so maybe they are just backed up?

I'm trying to frame my answer to the leadership question. I once talked to my mom about how I was selected as CEO in a group project.

Can I answer the question in this way during interviews? I feel like it's not the common approach since this answer does not involve any specific actions, but could potentially stand out.

Should I not try calling back again? I’ve been at my job for several years, so I am unfamiliar with how I should handle a situation like this.

Hi fishes,

As if I remember, one of the consultancy, used my PAN to register in ibegin but I’m unable to login since it is registered by their mail ID and my PAN.
