This is something that more hiring managers/ recruiters should think about. I have been searching for a new role for a couple of months now and have been ghosted by several hiring managers after going through 2 or 3 interviews. Most of them had said that I should hear back either way, but there are a few that I never received any follow-up from. It's stressful and frustrating to dedicate time to 2-3 rounds of interviews, completing writing assignments/ writing samples, etc, only to never receive any follow-up email to let me know that they would not be moving forward with me. The least they can do is let me know. Do better. Don't ghost people. If you can, give feedback on why you chose not to move forward with a candidate who has invested so much time and energy into pursuing a position.

Answering with "I'm open for anything" is the worst answer you can give 😫   Recruiters work on very-specific jobs, with very-specific skill requirements   And we're looking for candidates who have those requirements   So if you're "open to anything," you're not really helping yourself get that job   Say this instead:   "I have (x) years' experience as a (position title) in the (x) industry. I'm looking for a new role and am excited to learn more about potential opportunities."   This answer gives us with an idea of your overall experience   And how you might conceivably be a fit for the position we're hiring for   Let us help you #hiring #interviewing #corporate #hiringnow #recruitment #recruiter #humanresource #hr

📢 Attention Recruiters, Hiring Managers, HR Professionals, and Talent Acquisition Partners! 🌍 I've noticed an increasing trend of job postings that lack essential contact details like email addresses or phone numbers. While sharing opportunities is crucial, it's equally important to provide clear communication channels for interested candidates to connect with you directly. 🔗 Including your contact information not only makes the application process smoother but also builds trust and transparency with potential hires. 🚫 Additionally, a word to fraudsters: Let's keep our job market genuine and safe. Remember, actions have consequences, and what goes around comes around. Let's work together to create a more efficient and trustworthy hiring environment! 💼🤝 #Recruitment #HR #TalentAcquisition #JobOpportunities #Transparency #EthicalHiring #GlobalJobs #hiringmanager #genuine #jobposting #jobopportunity #ethical #humanresource

During our initial conversation, I always make sure to share crucial information with every candidate I speak to: "I want to start by discussing the compensation for this position..." "You'll be working closely with "ABC Hiring Manager", who is leading this team..." "Let me walk you through the interview process so you know what to expect..." "You can expect to hear back from me by [specific timeframe]..." "I assure you, I won't disappear on you unexpectedly." In my experience, being transparent throughout the recruiting process significantly enhances the candidate experience. It's about building trust and ensuring that everyone involved has clear expectations from the very beginning. #Hiring #Ghost #HR #Humanresources #LinkedIn #Jobposting #Hiringmanager

Just some encouragement today for anyone who may need it! Jobseekers: remember to not take the lack of responses or rejections personal! You're doing great! Keep up the consistency. With the rise of technology, job applications have become less and less personal, so treat it as so. HR / Hiring Teams: treat job applicants the way you want to be treated - like an individual. Try to respond with rejections, and do not ghost. You're asking for help for a role you deem needed. Treat those who apply with the same respect you ask from others. #Kindness goes a long way 😁 #jobseekers #hiring #careers

Dear Job Applicants, Patience is key when applying for a job. Our hiring process involves reviewing thousands of resumes, making it challenging to respond to every applicant, especially those who don't meet the job requirements. Sending unnecessary personal messages can slow down the process, so please adhere to the job description guidelines. We appreciate your understanding that only candidates meeting the job criteria will be contacted. Remember, hiring is a meticulous process that takes time. Your patience will pay off, leading you to the right job opportunity. #hiring #hr #humanresource #linkedin #hiringprocess #jobs #jobopportunity #jobopening #openvacancy #recruiting #hire #jobapplicationtips #jobsearch #recruitment #jobhunt #HRinsights #jobtips #careergrowth
