I know I’m not saying anything new but if a recruiter contacts you and you have a call and then they just completely disappear without even a response it’s so wild to me.

I don’t expect anybody to answer my cold outreach but once we’ve spoken there’s a bit of an unwritten social contract that one of us needs to actually bow out of the conversation.

How about after you have actually freelanced at the agency, did solid work, and left on good terms…yet the resource manager and recruiter simply ignore your emails checking in for more work. So rude and ignorant. People, it takes less than ten seconds to have nice manners.

Wait til you get to the final round of the interview process and then they disappear. All professionalism and humanity has gone out the window.

I feel like I’ve been neglecting this bowl. 😔 I’ve been doing keto with 16/8 intermittent fasting for the past month.
