Ghosted by recruiter !!
Attended an interview for a startup where they said all was okay and agreed to rollout the offer letter and last minute told hiring freeze. This is for an entry level role.
Cannot name the company as I can get identified. Fintech startup. Their payscales in glassdoor were showing high base for entry level roles in Business Operations.
How do we make sure that recruiter does not ghost us . What are the strategies we can use to get the offer. These days, every recruiter in first call itself asking about salary expectations.
Standard practice in India. Best you can do is name&shame on LinkedIn, or call it hard luck and move on
Put HR ka number on insurance websites, scaler, edtech and others.
“Strategies we can use to get the offer”
Wat?
Rule #1 in corporate - Any verbal communication isn’t a guarantee of anything.
Rule #2 in corporate - Don’t waste time, move on fast.
Even written offers can be rescinded citing business constraints or any corporate jargon have faced the same for my offer right after college
Never talk to the recruiter, always talk to the hiring manager or CEO. Reach out to them directly and say you're still very interested and would love to be considered for the role.
