This is a critical step during the hiring process that is easily overlooked. Although they may not make the final hiring decision, they will surface you to the right people who will. Recruiters are pretty busy people, and occasionally, their response times to emails or phone calls are slow or in some cases non-existent.

How can I connect with you
Have you ever contacted a potential employer and never heard from them again? Maybe you submitted your resume, had a phone screening, and even reached an interview opportunity just to be abandoned, ignored, and/or ghosted for NO reason.
Unfortunately, you’ve been a victim of what’s called “employer ghosting.”
If this has happened to you, you're not alone. Over 75% of job seekers have experienced employer ghosting after a job interview.
It can be confusing and upsetting when you don't hear back from a company. If a potential employer has ghosted you, here are some steps you can take...
- Follow-Up, (Professionally Aggressive!)
- Find a new point person
- Keep looking - see more ghosting strategy suggestions here
