Is there anything more deflating than blocking your lunch break for a recruiter call and then they just don’t show? I sat there staring at myself on Google Meet, refreshing my inbox, wondering if I somehow got the time wrong. No message, no apology, nothing. It’s such a small thing, but it really makes you question how they operate behind the scenes. At that point, would you even bother following up?

I'd be livid. Common courtesy seems to be a thing of the past with recruiters. There are so many posts about this kind of inexplicable ghosting on here. It reflects really poorly on the entire industry. If any job is going to get replaced by AI, the petty side of me hopes it'll be recruiters.

Honestly, I was super frustrated. It’s not even just the missed call, it’s the lack of basic respect for someone’s time. I’m debating whether to send a quick follow-up just to close the loop, but part of me feels like the no-show already says a lot.

Recruiters have managers, report them to hr and post on Glassdoor. Suddenly they have more time for you.
