Recruiter here! Myself and a lot of Recruiters I know "task batch" so often that can look like several hours to a day of a single or a few tasks. For example, a day for sourcing(a ton of outreach), a day for meetings with hiring managers etc, a day for phone screens, a day for follow ups and responses. Recruiters get pulled into a TON of different directions, so most of the best recruiters I know force themselves to task batch so that they don't lose track of things in the shuffle. Can't say if that's the case, but it's a peak behind the curtain. Also, it is also true that Linkedin Recruiter is a whole separate thing and you don't see your messages from there in your regular linkedin.
Good to know!
How quickly did you reply? Yes, it’s a possibility they may be ghosting, but unless you replied within minutes, it’s also a possibility that they’re sick, on PTO, etc. Even worse, they may have been laid off. Send a follow up message if you feel too much time has passed.
That’s odd, but how long has it been since you messaged them? One note - if they emailed you from their LinkedIn recruiter account, it’s a completely separate page and inbox from their personal account. Maybe they didn’t see it. Not trying to make excuses for them, but a lot of people don’t know that. My LinkedIn recruiter account has issues all the time and I get errors when I try to open my inbox. Once I couldn’t access it for 3 days and I felt awful leaving people hanging for that long. It’s a crap product given the thousands of dollars they charge for seats. Hopefully you hear back from them soon!
That’s good to know! Didn’t know that. That could be it
Power move
I mean I guess lol. Doesn’t make me think any better or worse of them, just very annoying
I replied within the hour. The message is in their inbox marked as unread. They were on LinkedIn all day yesterday. Not hard to just go to the notification in the inbox and respond. Takes 5 min tops
It’s been a day
