An agency recruiter explains why candidates get ghosted. Agency recruiters work on commission, so they focus only on candidates they can place quickly. In-house recruiters have different incentives and are more likely to respond.
Why is there a lot of ghosting from recruiters? The reason why you're ghosted is 'cause there's 2 types of recruiters. There's agency recruiters and in-house recruiters. Agency recruiters like myself are the ones that give you, that give the recruiting industry a bad reputation. We get paid very low base salaries, like very low, and we are 90% commission. We don't get paid to be your friend. Recruiters don't get paid to love, they get paid to place. So if you don't have what they need, they're gonna move on. Do not take it personally. It sucks, I get it, but
