I don’t get how recruiters don’t send you an update on your interview. I truly don’t get it.

And the miscommunication among them. I was hired and accepted an offer letter with a starting date. Made them fully aware, I need 10 days notice for my former employer and it was specified that I don't hand in my resignation until checks have been clear. No word from anyone and when contact the GM on her personal cell, I was told I have to start this Thursday which is earlier than the start date mentioned in the letter.

I was rejected after scheduling a final round but never actually having the interview itself, and the recruiter offered to explain the reason, so when I accepted his offer to talk, he ghosted me

......this delay is more than not caused by the hiring manager & leadership.

Thanks for letting us know that recruiters aren’t effective at their jobs.

We are the product. They don't owe us anything.

Idk about that. A simple rejection email or something is better than leaving someone hanging

Most of the ones I work with, are overworked. They each have 150+ jobs they are filling at once, juggling hiring managers, interviews, screening, and scheduling. They are considered overhead cost, so it can take awhile to add to their headcount and meet demand. It’s a hard job, and I don’t envy them.

I’m sorry but recruiters have it kinda easy. They have a whole system to reject people and if you can’t even do that then they are just lazy.

Leaving people hanging just shows how bad they are at their job and sometimes goes to reflect on the company.

I recently had an interview with BNY for an Analyst role located in DE. The interview went well and I was informed by the recruiter that the team was interested. They asked if I was willing to relocate immediately, and I told him that my decision would be best made if I see an offer. I have not yet received a follow up after this(coming on two weeks) so I know that I've been ghosted. My question is, was I wrong to ask to see the offer before making a decision?

Love how BS credit score is. Got my score up to 800 last month only to go on vacation so my credit utilization went up to 8% due to the increased spending and my score dropped 35 points because I didn’t immediately pay the balance after charging the purchases. I always pay my balance in full each month and have never missed a payment, how is 8% credit utilization determined to be that big of a risk that my score got immediately wrecked, I don’t understand
