Recruiters love to complain about candidates ghosting.
They accept the interview and never show up. They go quiet after the offer.
It happens. It is annoying.
But be honest for a second.
How many people did your company never reply to this year?
The ones who spent an evening on a cover letter.
The ones who did three rounds and a take-home task and then heard nothing.
Candidates did not invent ghosting. They learned it from us.
If you want people to respect your process, close the loop. Even a two-line "no, and thank you" email.
It takes one minute to write. People remember it for years.
