Interviewing for job right now. I keep getting calls from recruiters and a few first round opportunities. But then it always goes quiet...just ghosted. Is this normal for recruiters or am I doing something wrong?

Had the same issue, worked with a few recruiters and some sent me jobs that led to introduction calls and some just never responded at all. Eventually found a job by myself. In total it took me about a month and a half from when I started looking to when I accepted my new job

As someone on the other side now…there are a lot of internal processes to manage with recruiting. Someone who’s supposed to transfer to another department doesn’t. Or they do but the timeline keeps shifting. Ghosting is always wrong and I work very hard to make sure to give candidates timelines and reach out when I say I will…but lining everything up is just as frustrating when you’re the one hiring

I left my job about a year ago to relocate, make sure it was the right decision and start a side business in the mean time. Now I’m actively looking for a new sales position, have tons of experience, but am struggling to even get a response from job apps. I am wondering if this is because of my employment gap? I don’t have my side business listed on my resume because I don’t feel like I have enough positive “stats” to report yet given it’s new. Any advice or recommendations?

Anybody hiring for data analytics positions? I just need a first round interview. I am a decent candidate, my last 5 interviews were EY, McK, EY, McK and GS (last round, 1st round, last round, 2nd round, 1st round). I have 10 months of experience and graduated with majors in cs and bus. I interned once at a big 4 acc firm and once as a software engineer.
1 caveat: I am an F1 student on OPT.

I’m currently interviewing with a few top 10 firms and a couple top 100 firms for a mostly remote experienced associate/new senior role. Does anyone have any tips on virtual interviews and how to gauge the culture of the firm and if it really will be a good fit for you? I’m struggling to figure out that out because I used to gauge it on the feeling I got while in their office during interviews. Any suggestions would be helpful :)
