I’ve been ghosted by three companies after final round interviews. I prepped, I presented, I followed up. And then? Nothing. Not even a we went another direction email. It’s been weeks in some cases, and the silence is starting to feel personal. Is it worth following up again, or should I take the hint and move on?

Can't hurt to send one last-ditch email, but you should mentally move on if you haven't yet. There's a 2% chance you'll hear back, and if you somehow do, the odds of hearing good news are even worse. Job hunting is kind of like dating in that regard. If they wanted you, they'd make sure you knew.

All I can say is that the silence is definitely not personal. We're all dealing with it. It's not a reflection of you, or your worth, or your skills, it really is this terrible job market. I'm sorry they aren't getting back to you, the disrespect is ridiculous!

Idk but reading the comments has me glad that you and I aren't the only ones. Let's keep on trying though I'm sure something will work out.

If it really matters to you/you love the role, one last follow up wouldn’t hurt. I wouldn’t wear yourself out double following up with every single role though.

It can’t harm to send one last follow up in my opinion! Too many companies do this and it’s so frustrating, I feel you.

Sorry
