I interviewed with a place months ago that ghosted me. The recruiter emailed me on Friday that their first choice turned down their offer, so she will be sending me an offer next week. Part of me is offended that she told me that I was their sloppy seconds choice. The other half of me is laughing because they ghosted me for so long that I started a new job elsewhere last week.

Dear Recruiter,
Enjoy going back to square one and reposting the job because I don't want it either. bye bye.

Get the offer and see it and the start date then ghost them. That would burn a bridge by the look on Recruiters and HR would be priceless.

Oooh, I love this response.

Listen to their offer and if it's not as good as what you're making now tell them you're making a lot more and if they could match it you'll be good with it. I guess now you're holding the cards so this is where you could ask them to sweeten the pie

I started interviewing early Oct with a company that reached out via recruiter. The hiring manager was very straight forward with me that I was his top candidate and I was told all other interviews were very positive incl CMO. The recruiter said they'd be making an offer but it's now been three weeks. Anyone else had the process drag on like this? Meanwhile I'm taking other interviews and was offered a promotion at current company, but was very interested in this one. What would you do?
