So 2 wks ago I was introduced, via email, to a recruiter on the .org side as my experience matched best there to start. That was 2 weeks ago. I sent 1 follow up a week ago. Nothing. Now granted, there are no roles I am looking for posted yet due to the freeze (Sales leadership is what I’m after) but I have a VP referral plus a number of others. In no way am I entitled to anything but was hoping if someone could tell me if given the above this kind of ghosting common among SF recruiters?

I’ll say two things - first, in the Salesforce world I wouldn’t even consider that ghosting. A month? Two months? Yeah maybe then it’s more of a ghosting situation. I will also say that it doesn’t seem like positions are open quite yet it doesn’t seem. So they may not even have any news for you anyway at this point. Don’t know if that’s even helpful, but I do with you good luck on your future employment. It’s a good place to be, especially .org.

Thanks much! I’m not losing too much sleep because the jobs themselves aren’t yet posted. Just a simple 1-2 sentence “hey I got your note let’s connect when there’s a job you want to apply to” would save me any sort of stress…but I get it.

Appreciate the quick replies especially given the situation hah!

There is still a hiring freeze in .org for most positions. They did just hire a few backfills for people that left, but they were AE’s. Several vacant RVP, SE, and CSG roles but no time line when they will open up and what priority order.

like

Thank you for that! I finally saw a Manager of SE’s role get posted (I had about a decades worth of being a SE before I took on people management). I presume it’s equivalent to a Sales RVP. Hopefully .org roles will post soon. I have an old colleague who is a RVP and he concurred there’s a ton of openings.

Hope the “un-freeze” happens earlier in October!
