I recently went through a hiring process that began with a recruiter arranging an interview, followed by a 30-minute Teams interview, and culminating in an on-site meeting with the supervisor. The on-site portion included a tour of the office, which gave the impression I was being seriously considered for the role. However, after all that effort, I was ghosted without any communication.
This lack of professionalism was disappointing, but in hindsight, I’m glad things turned out the way they did. I’ve since accepted a position with a different organization that has a clearly superior work environment, as reflected in their employee reviews. Perhaps I truly dodged a bullet!
