Why the heck do Recruiters and Hiring managers do such a poor job keeping applicants informed to the status. I had my time wasted with an opportunity for a fortune 100 position for 3 1/2 months. Phone Screens, Zoom Interview with hiring manager, Face to face with hiring manager. (Then asked for professional references) , impromptu Zoom meet with other leader who was completely disengaged. Then boom... six weeks of silence vague texts from hiring manager they were still going thru the process..

Continued:... Only to be told by hiring manager hey thanks but were going to go another direction 13 weeks into the process? thanks for wasting my summer with the prospect. Allowing a candidate to get their hopes up only to get a vague brush off and a dear john letter... uncool.
