S/o to the Veritas Technologies LLC recruiter who reached out to me via LI for an interview for an AE role. We set a date and he had an emergency the day off and asked to reschedule. Day of the reschedule; no-show’d for the Zoom Call and ignored my messages, emails and call after. completely ghosted me 👻

What’s interviewing been like for you all lately?

That's not normal, and I would honestly feel like I dodged a bullet. If someone ghosts you from the get-go, it's not a good sign as far as working with them and for the company. I'm sorry that happened though! I've heard more and more people talking about their issues with recruiters lately. Its a shame because many places need new employees, but the recruiters haven't been super reliable.

Hmm.. that doesn't seem typical, I'm so sorry that happened to you. Maybe she has been going through some employment issues of her own? I would follow up with another recruiter for that company if you can find one on LinkedIn and try to get some clarity there.

Why assume it was a she? It was definitely a man

Hello! Thank you very much for your feedback and I'm so sorry you had that experience. That is never the experience we want to give our candidates and we hold our recruiters to a very high standard. If you're comfortable, please send additional details to feedback@veritas.com. Thank you!

First time poster here!

After spending 4 years as a mid-level ops manager, I tried to break into HR through talent acquisition. Now after 6 years in TA, I've had a hard time getting out of it. My goal was always to get into a more broad HRBP position, but I've since worked for smaller orgs without a solid HR career path. When I ask about my career goals, they keep telling me, "Soon!" Or "Maybe in 6 months!"

I'm testing SPHR in June. Any advice for securing the type of role I'm aiming for?

I’ve done it long enough to where I’m confident and comfortable going to new businesses, establishing some rapport with business owners.
