Recruiters catch a lot of flak, but aren't hiring managers or HR ultimately the ones to blame for the impossible standards and confusing hiring processes? Am I off the mark here?

I think the problem with recruiters is that they get a bad name because they ghost and don't communicate well. I don't know that people are as upset about the impossible standards, its more getting ghosted and never hearing anything back. It seems like it happens way too often these days.

Hey team! So I was laid off from my SDR position about a week ago. A couple months back, I had an offer for a BDR position that I ended up turning down but I really liked and connected with the manager. Is it worth it to reach out? I applied to other positions in the same company. What about reaching out to previous co workers at a different company? Not sure how to navigate this… please help. Also I’m sorry if this is the wrong bowl to post in.
