Received a random email from a sourcing recruiter September 2025. Interview went well and stated that I would hear back. Received another email October 8, 2025 stating that I was still in the running and that when the job gets created I would hear more. Responded to said email thanking them and letting them know that I am still interested. Also seen that the email was sent to me but with a different persons email. Stated this and the recruiter stated that it was a glitch. Weeks passed and I emailed just to check in. That was November 8, 2025. Ghosted. Religiously checked their careers page to see the exact same position listed. Applied and followed up with the recruiter. Still no response. Just unprofessional, as I know several hundreds apply but a common courtesy response would have been nice.

I recently completed a one-way video interview, and I found the process to be fairly easy. The questions were straightforward, and I didn’t face any major difficulties in answering them. However, I’m not entirely sure how effectively the company can evaluate a candidate based on this type of interview format. Since there’s no real-time interaction, they miss out on assessing qualities like spontaneity, adaptability, and how well a candidate engages in a conversation. While it might help them filter out applicants based on basic qualifications and communication skills, I feel that a live interview would provide a more comprehensive assessment of a candidate’s potential.
