How can candidates attack the ghosting problem?
Leave a comment on "Who's hiring" that "Hey, I got ghosted by this company?"
- seanmcdirmid 7y agoI’m not sure if that is kosher with HN commenting guidelines for who’s hiring posts, but I’ve definitely been tempted.
- subhobroto 7y agoSean, it's against the guidelines but as you have experienced, so have I. I'm pretty tempted to start a "who’s ghosting" thread on HN to run in parallel with the "who’s hiring" post
- Apocryphon 7y agoPerhaps there can be a list on GitHub that updates with self-reported incidents. And there's always Glassdoor.
- subhobroto 7y agoHaving worked at employers that, uhm, are "active" on Glassdoor, I don't want to deal with that company at all. > Perhaps there can be a list on GitHub that updates with self-reported incidents THAT'S a fantastic idea. I will do a ASK HN on this I think. I will credit you of course. Love the feedback
- heavyset_go 7y agoGlassdoor deletes reviews and has no problem with employers and marketing agencies writing dozens of fake, glowing reviews to drown out the real ones.
