Ghosting has become quite a thing throughout the recruiting world. Going completely silent (non-responsive) when one decides to go in another direction, loses focus, or doesn’t know what to say at the moment is not confined to the dating world anymore. There have been hiring managers that have done this for quite some time and now candidates are regularly ghosting as well. Regardless of the situation, it’s a bad look.

Some candidate is going to turn down your offer. The ideal candidate that would be a huge asset to your team, in some cases won’t consider a change. A great employee and key part of your business is going to leave at some point for some reason. These things happen. They are unavoidable. Smart businesses don’t let this cripple them. They don’t allow it to have a significant long-term impact because they have solid talent flow. Constantly recruiting, filling positions with the best talent you can find, doing great work, letting the world know, promoting for great work. Consistent talent flow makes a turn down or employee loss insignificant and keeps you on track. todd@toddkmiec.com http://www.recruitingblogs.com/profile/ToddKmiec https://www.facebook.com/pg/Todd-Kmiec-and-Associates-194864617211094/about/
It’s a good question and worth asking because every situation is different. Sometimes a great hire is the linchpin of the business going forward. The part you had to have. The person who will make it all click. Sometimes it’s the only candidate you could find that you could also land and who has the skills you need. It might be more about a project than the next 20 years. It might be more about the next 20 years than the next project. The important thing is to know, and then to act accordingly. todd@toddkmiec.com http://www.recruitingblogs.com/profile/ToddKmiec
