Why is it that after many months of applying to numerous jobs that you get ghosted?! I have all the experience, skills and knowledge these employers look for in their next candidate! Where is the courtesy? Where is the integrity?! This is for any hiring manager or hr representative in charge of the hiring process to take note on... this is obsurd!

Glad I'm not the only one. I'm so sick of interviews getting canceled last minute and recruiters going radio silent after harassing me to apply for jobs. This process is so miserable.

On one of my recent final round interviews, I was told I was over prepared. I think I have heard it all at this point.

Where are courtesy and integrity? They were last seen boarding a bus and leaving town years ago. Seriously, it's very much an employer's market, and a lot of people don't feel much need to be courteous to applicants. I know that some job postings get an absurd amount of applicants, and a lot of them are people spam applying. So it's tough to respond to everyone. But at minimum the serious applicants should get the courtesy of a response, even if it's negative.

I was once ghosted after 4 rounds of interviews at a recognizable American corporation. In the last one the parting words from the hiring manager were “I hope to see you here soon”. I even started researching housing options because I would have had to move.

I found out months later that I was a backup plan in case they decided fire the person that was in the role and they decided to hold onto that person for another six months… after which they had the nerve to contact me to see if I was available.

I agree, after preparing for the interview and reaching to the VP's level they will ghost you.. at least find the decency to tell the person they didn't make it rather than not giving the advice or the status of the application.

It’s so SO frustrating putting in the effort, only to be left hanging. It's like they forget we’re real people on the other side of those applications. Honestly, it's a huge lack of respect, and I wish companies would just give us some closure, whether it’s a yes or no. The ghosting needs to stop!

Since it’s a tight labor market, knowing the right individual is the difference between an interview and an auto rejection. Would suggest to shift your strategy to focusing on networking/meeting people. You got this

One thing I found is you have to create a resume that will get through the Automatic Tracking Systems (ATS). For example if you use tables in your resume, it may get automatically rejected and depending on how they configure, you get a rejection email or not. You have to get through the ATS before a human looks at it.
