Nobody tells job seekers how much recruiting happens BEFORE a company is actually ready to hire. And this is where things get interesting. 👇 A recruiter reaches out to YOU. Great salary. Impressive company. They LOVE your background. You weren't even looking for a job, but now you're interested. Then they disappear. As a former recruiter, let me tell you what MIGHT be happening behind the scenes. 1️⃣ The recruiter is building a candidate pipeline for a position that hasn't been approved. 2️⃣ The hiring manager wants to see who's available BEFORE committing to the salary budget. 3️⃣ The company is testing the market to see what kind of talent it can attract at a certain salary. 4️⃣ The role gets put on hold, but nobody bothers to tell the candidates already contacted. And here's the frustrating part. You might be sitting there wondering what you said wrong. Meanwhile, there might not even be an approved job to interview for! My advice? Ask the recruiter TWO questions early: Is this an approved, actively open position? What's the expected hiring timeline? And PLEASE don't stop exploring other opportunities because a recruiter showed interest. Has a recruiter ever contacted YOU and then disappeared? 👇 📌 Send this to someone who's job searching! 💜 #jobsearchtips #recruiter #jobtok #careeradvice #jobseeker
