RECRUITERS:

If you are the one who initiates contact regarding an opportunity (be it full time or *especially freelance*), is it too much to ask to be notified when the job goes to another candidate?

In my experience, ghosting by recruiters has sadly become the norm.

It’s crazy how much close friends influence you.
Would you stay friends with someone that consistently makes bad financial decisions. Or distance yourself for like-minded folk.
