I left a role after several years non-consulting. Oh my how ATS have messed up the job hunt. 70% of resumes are auto tossed by systems for formatting etc. I have not had luck even during a hot market after many custom tailored to the role resumes. No calls, no interviews. Very legit experience.

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
