I experienced a clear case of interview ghosting with MyOutDesk. A recruiter reached out for a leadership role, followed by a same-day screening call with the Chief People Officer. After the call, I received a positive email outlining next steps: a detailed questionnaire and an in-person meeting with the CEO.
I completed the questionnaire (which took over an hour), and since then there has been complete silence—no follow-up, no update, no closure.
For a company that speaks strongly about people and culture, this lack of basic communication during the hiring process was disappointing. Transparency and respect for candidates’ time should match the values being promoted.
