It’s honestly so frustrating. You put in time, prep, and emotional energy, and then… silence.
I think it’s become normal because companies can get away with it. There’s so much competition that they don’t feel pressure to close the loop. It doesn’t make it any less disappointing though.
Why should they think from your perspective when you clearly don’t think from their perspective? They are doing exactly what you are doing — only think about yourself — because that’s human nature.
Which explains why you’d think it’s only 5 mins 🤣
Because there's no consequence for them. They ghost 50 candidates and might get one negative review because of it. Meanwhile responding to everyone takes time and opens them up to potential discrimination claims if they give specific feedback. There's no incentive for them to provide useful feedback, so they don't. The system is broken. Don't blame yourself for it.
Nobody expects you to mind read, they expect you not to know the reason, that’s the point. I’m not the one who is unhappy here — I wasn’t the one who was so unhappy about not getting feedback and created a public post about it. I’m actually very happy that things are working the way they do and will continue to be.

Yea I agree that it is super frustrating. They could even use AI to respond for all I care. Would just be nice to close the loop.

Literally! It’s just being lazy
