Applied for this position at Twitter, Singapore.
Received an email from the recruiter on being shortlisted for a Phone Interview. I was asked to choose the timing for our call based on the calendly schedule shared.
I booked a time slot for the following day and prepared with much enthusiasm. Next day, anxiously waiting for the call that was scheduled I kept myself pumped up with confidence as, this was much awaited dream company for me.
Finally, the time for call was nearing and I also decided to be prepared for a video call, if the recruiter wanted me to switch on the cam.
With bated breathe and after a couple of rehearsals to introduce myself, I locked myself in the room and the time was up.
Kept looking at my mobile frequently and logged in my laptop to check the schedule but to "NO USE". 30 min call schedule got over, I waited another 30 min and still nothing. Everything in Vain.
I told myself maybe the recruiter was busy with their schedule and sent an email politely reminding them that I was awaiting for their call.
"GHOSTED", Forget an apology for wasting all that time and effort, Not even a reply came back. Not even a rejection email.
Agree, that the company is one among the Top Tech Global companies handling a high influx of applications but ghosting a shortlisted applicant doesn't look good upon them.
"The applicants are not just a .pdf file or a piece of paper, don't forget that they are humans with aspirations to work for your company and a dream of landing a job that could lift their lives up".
HIGHLY UNPROFESSIONAL RECRUITERS and Highly inefficient hiring policies.
