Looking for honest replies - Recruiters who have ghosted candidates in the past, what stopped you from sending a 3 second update to an applicant? Do you still ghost? If not, what changed?

I’m interviewing with one of the FAANG company, the interview process completed last week and recruiter have ghosted me. What are some valid reasons for ghosting? They could have just acknowledged and said will get back with more information when they have, instead of ghosting. Would you like to share some of your ghosting stories. I’m really anxious to know about the outcome that’s why this rant.

Dear Recuriters, What fun you get in ghosting candidates? If you have no answers from your management you can inform the same. Now don’t say you have lot of job to do. Candidate experience is also your job isn’t it.

Need answer to just one thing. Do you guys intentionally ghost candidates or do you guys intentionally ghost candidates? 🙂

I have been ghosted more by recruiters than being ghosted by my dates. Why can’t recruiters be respectful to us and stop ghosting us? Software engineers are human beings and have feelings too.

How common is it for recruiters to ghost you after multiple rounds of interviews and assessments (over months) by blocking your email so you can't even send follow up emails? The way I see it - they don't lose much since they have thousands to choose from an applicant pool, but it certainly undermines the effort made my candidates to a huge degree. Or is that common courtesy, acknowledgement and in general being decent human seem rathee utopian concepts in this day and age? Wouldn't wish it on my worst enemy.

Just trying to understand what could be the reasons behind this?
