It feels like complete gridlock. It's been this way for 9 months or more. NYC is utterly dead. Those hiring have dozens upon dozens of talent to choose from.

On top of that most positions are listing two or three jobs worth of must haves. And the creative jobs are so much more specialized for really niche work. The bar is so high, and submissions so dense, they won't bother to even respond unless you fit their Mr./Mrs. Right to a tee + bonus points.

Do you actually take the time to reject people after initial interviews? Or do you wait for the candidate to reach back out to you? I’ve noticed a lot of agencies don’t seem to follow up

Actually, I gave Interview for BackEnd Developer @ Itilite. I was selected in the interview process (2 Tech DSA Based + HR) and got a mail stating that our interview panel is really impressed with your domain related expertise in order to proceed with offer negotiation please submit your documents. Now after 2-3 days of document submission, they came up by saying they cant move forward with my candidature.

I am still amazed how can they do this after asking my documents.

This one is going to make some of y’all mad, but it’s so annoyingly unnecessary. The most irritating part is “is it a shirt day or a skirt day”…. Like women don’t wear shirts with skirts and men don’t wear shirts with pants. Shirts and skirts are not mutually exclusive. I’ll just leave this here.
