Are you serious? You seen that happen first hand? That's disgustingly toxic!!

Some firms put out ads to fish for cvs without real intention of hiring. You joined the wrong profession pal.

Serious. They retrenching?

Seriously, why put up advertisements if none of your HR personnel bother to reach out to candidates? Sure they've been deluged with tons of applications. But surely it doesn't take 3 weeks to send out an email that could just even be copied over on a template.


P.S. A&G bothered to send a rejection, hence why they are missing.

I am not sure what these 'opportunities' are anymore.

maybe they just chose not to respond to you first while they interview their preferred candidates - keeping you as reserve

I think they usually say they are not obliged to give a rejection response so you don’t have to apply if you don’t like that

Exactly. While I don't necessarily approve of the practice of recruiters 'ghosting' applicants, OP's original assumption that these adverts are 'fake' is also off the mark.

Am at WP, they are hiring regularly. I see new hires being added every few weeks.
