I have a spreadsheet of the 200 jobs I applied for before my current one
No response on 60% of them, contact dropped on several for no apparent reason, etc.
I do not blame any prospective employee for ghosting a company. I will always stick up for the little man doing what is best for him

Text or email them back. Because of so much spam, almost no one picks up a call from a number they don't know.

I have had this happen. Zoom interviews are horrible. It allows for no shows.

Do you know how awkward it is sitting alone in the conference room of a company you don't even work for?
