The Protocall Group Offers Job Seekers and Employers Alternatives to "Ghosting" in the Hiring Process

 

Cherry Hill, NJ -- (SBWIRE) -- 11/12/2019 -- The Protocall Group is a highly respected staffing firm that employers trust to fill light industrial and healthcare jobs in Philadelphia and job seekers turn to for quality career opportunities throughout Southeastern Pennsylvania and New Jersey. In an increasingly impersonal, technology-dependent world where "ghosting" has complicated the hiring process, The Protocall Group believes better communication can help recruiters and workers save time and achieve a more satisfying employment experience.

"Ghosting" is defined as cutting off communication with no explanation, and it's happening with increasing frequency in the modern workplace. Whether it's job seekers who fail to show up for a scheduled job interview or employers who don't follow through on promises to inform applicants of hiring decisions, ghosting is a breach of professional etiquette that produces a variety of negative consequences. It wastes the time and energy of all parties and can be damaging to a business's overall productivity and bottom line.

The Protocall Group advises recruiters to be upfront and honest with applicants about the hiring process and how long it is expected to take. If an applicant has a timeline for future communication, he or she might be less likely to get impatient and start pursuing other opportunities. Recruiters are also encouraged to make the hiring process personal and build trust with applicants, maintaining an open line of communication so the applicant feels comfortable reaching out with questions, concerns—or to simply say they've accepted another job offer and won't be reporting for work.

Job seekers should remember that even if they have multiple job opportunities, it's beneficial to conduct themselves professionally in all interactions. Ignoring messages from recruiters or blowing off scheduled appointments is shortsighted; burning bridges now could limit career moves later. Instead, practicing honesty and courtesy—even in uncomfortable situations—gets a job seeker off on the right professional foot. Employers would much rather be turned down for a job than simply ignored, and a quick email or text message can go a long way toward preserving one's professional reputation.

The Protocall Group helps job seekers and employers avoid the wasted time and frustration that comes with miscommunication and ghosting in the hiring process.
