Two different recruiters this week reached out to me on LinkedIn at big agencies asking and linking to an open job app they were asking if I was interested in but in their messages wrote the wrong title as in the link and I promptly wrote back to them expressing interest.

It’s been multiple days for both and nothing back? Is this common?

Yeah, it's not all that uncommon to have weird interactions or straight up get ghosted by recruiters. At the end of the day, a lot of them are just as overworked as everyone else and they end up not being able to follow up with everyone that they reach out to. It sucks but it's just how it goes sometimes. Keep your head up, you'll find something soon enough

Friend of mine was supposed to receive an offer (told verbally) from Deloitte and then just found out they are pausing on hiring the role. How common is that? Seems wildly unprofessional that none of the partners called and instead it was the recruiter conveying that news. At McKinsey, if that happened, the head of the practice or the office would personally make the phone call at the very least.

SPHR exam- has anyone ever been “randomly selected” for an application audit? This just happened to me and the sheer amount of effort that is going to go into collecting all the documents almost makes me not want to follow through. Since I didn’t finish undergrad, they’re asking for a copy of my high school diploma or transcript and that itself is going to be an absolute nightmare to get hold of. Guess I’m not really looking for a solution here, just venting.

If I hit all my goals (ie, prove myself) within that time frame, I'll get a promotion and salary adjustment.
QUESTIONS:
Should this be in writing in the offer letter?
How detailed should it be? I assume I won't know what goals to set till I start...

Cold applied for an awesome role, had an interview with hiring manager, recruiter, and given a pretty hefty assignment that I’m really proud of nailing. They followed up with an email asking for 4-5 days that I am available for a full day of interviews. Gave them 4-5 days, started planning for how I’d get those days off work during insane times at current job, and now not a single word from them to confirm a date. Been over a week now. Sad. Pretty jaded. What can I do? Already followed up

How early is it to early to take a week off ?? So I just started a new job a week ago.My office is really lenient and supportive of people traveling. But I still feel bad about it.

Recruiters are now pushing back at creatives 👻 them. Ca we all just get along and be professional?
