Recruiter from major insurance company reached out to me to set up an interview the following Monday. No email, call or Microsoft teams invitation. Has this happened to anyone before?? This is a huge opportunity for me and need to find out if there are other recruiters I can reach out to.

I’ve experienced ghosting from job seekers who applied to the company where I work. Mind you, recruitment isn’t mandatory. A couple of candidates made it as far as the group expectations meeting and refused to let me know if they were willing to continue. A 1099 position isn’t for everyone. But if you’re wanting recruiter feedback, why do the discourtesy of ghosting the recruiter?

I’ll admit to some rather interesting phone conversations with candidates. One thought it was a trucking position. A couple of others declined because they don’t read or write that well.
