If every recruiter had to hear one honest message from job seekers, what would you say? Mine would be that ATS is hindering getting quality applicants, no matter how much more efficient you might think it is making the early stages of your searching.

ATS is only to "help" Recruiters although then again with the way the work ethic and other people skills have changed over the years technology has actually helped the human race de-evolve. ATS just like any other technological "advancement" is only as good as those who program it.

I would ask at the end of the interview, so do I have a chance or did we just waste both our times? Of course the polite message would be "what are my chances?", but if I could be honest that would be my statement/question.

My question is would you work here and if I hear bull crap I know it’s time to leave😅

I would ask them to hire an IT professional for 12 minutes to teach them how to set up and send a rejection form letter email to all candidates who they interviewed (or heck, why not pay for 15 minutes and send to all candidates that applied!), which would be much preferable to being ghosted. Note that I don't truly believe you need an IT professional for this lol, it's just something I pretend because why else wouldn't they already do it?

I just experienced it for the first time after they said they would email me it’s almost laughable how unprofessional companies are especially managers.

Stop "ghosting" candidates. If a candidate takes the time to apply or actually interview they deserve the respect of a close-out.
