The hiring process is under scrutiny as job seekers take a stand against being "ghosted" by potential employers. An increasing number of candidates are speaking out about the frustration of being left in the dark after investing time and effort into applications and interviews.
In a recent Yahoo Finance article, Natasha Hawker, Managing Director of Employee Matters, weighed in on this troubling trend. She emphasised that businesses engaging in this practice risk significant brand damage. "You want to attract and retain the best possible candidates. That's a key to your success, and doing stuff like this doesn't serve you well," she said.
Natasha also supports platforms that hold employers accountable, stating that transparency in recruitment is key to fostering trust and improving hiring practices.
