I have a few deals that are not dead, but they are definitely not moving. I do not want to be annoying, but I also do not want to disappear and lose the thread. I’ve started using short check-ins with a clear next step instead of long emails, and it helps a little. What’s your go-to follow-up when a prospect goes quiet?

Sometimes, you have to be a little bit annoying. I have good relationships with most of my propects so I don't think they take it as me being annoying. It is more like doing my due diligence to help them in th elong run.

I had a job interview for a role that I really want. The hiring manager scheduled me for an interview and did not show up. Emailed me an hour later stating that he got super busy and couldn’t attend, and would like to reschedule. This is a major red flag, but I can’t help but feel that I am missing out since this role pays 50% over what I currently make. Should I let the recruiter know? What’s your take on this?

“Job hopper” and “quiet quitting” are all schemes made up by boomers to make you think everything is the employees fault. When in reality people are just getting out of bad situations. Older companies do whatever they can to pay you the least amount and get the max work out of you. Except our generation will just leave amid we’re being mistreated, not complain for 35 years making 50k and 0 advancement.
