Preventing Ghosting By Candidates: Make Your Company Worth Joining

According to a <a href="https://www.indeed.com/lead/ghosting-guide">study conducted by Indeed.com</a>, almost a third of job candidates ages 18-24 (and almost a fifth of older candidates) ghosted a potential employer because "the hiring process was too slow or too long."

If you're a hiring manager, you've probably had a promising job candidate suddenly stop answering your calls, texts and email. As early as 2019, more than four out of five companies have been ghosted by a job candidate at least once.The behaviour stems from the world of online dating, where ghosting is de-facto and pain-free (for the ghoster) way to say: "I'm not interested." Since job hunting, like hooking up, now takes place primarily online, it's only logical there's crossover behaviour.
