There’s been some pushback from recruiters lately defending the practice of ghosting. But how do you explain just not calling for an interview you set up? (cont)

We get it, you can’t respond to every single email, but when a creative has to weasel their way into a conference room or coffee shop for 30 minutes just to have a conversation with you during the weekday the least you can do is show up.

How about a recruiter who’d rather frequent social media with very non-recruiting oriented posts than write you back a simple “we’re all good for now.”?

I’m actually fairly certain I’ve seen the same recruiter post nonsense on this app, if my judging by tone of voice is accurate at all

There’s no excuse for ghosting.
If you were an account person who couldn’t keep up with simple email management/basic acknowledgement emails to client and other requests, you’d be fired within 3 months.

There was that article yesterday or Tuesday on ghosting, interviews with name recruiters, and it didn’t seem like they were defending ghosting, per se—but rather they were explaining what in their world could lead them to unintentionally (not meanly or vindictively) ghosting someone or in some cases what candidates had done to increase their chances of being ghosted. But no one ever mentioned setting up an actual live coffee meeting and simply blowing it off...that’s fn despicable and amateur hour. 👎🏽

I too was on some the hunt for some anti ghosting tips. 😞 but, I hear you...it wasn’t without funny bits for sure. The guy could turn a phrase, but it was a little too Tom Robbins-y for my liking.

No excuses. They are part of Human Resources. Their job is based on interpersonal skills and cultivating relationships with people.

Hi friends of fishbowl! A year ago I told myself no more agencies. Then I got a job at another agency and I’m basically hating my life more than ever right now. This place is not good for me mentally and I’ve only been here for 90 days. I should’ve listened to my gut but here we are. So my question is what job titles should I be targeting as a senior project manager if I want to go to to client side?
