I applied through the company website. A recruiter reached out to me to set up a phone screen. After the phone screen, I had a 30 minute phone interview with the hiring manager. The hiring manager said the recruiter would be in touch about potential next steps upon returning from vacation. I followed up with the recruiter a few times over a period of three weeks but did not hear back. I would appreciate a simple one line response telling me I did not make it to the next round. I took the time to apply to the position, research the company, and prepare for the interview so the least the company and recruiting department can do is have the courtesy to respond to interested candidates. The job search process is frustrating enough as it is but such unprofessionalism makes it worse.
