Where You Ghosted? (No contact from employer at least 2 weeks after applying)
No, I received a formal rejection letter within 2 weeks of applying.

At least they responded, but the feedback was crazy! The role required an associates degree, admin experience, and a drivers license. I have two master’s degrees, years of experience in the supplier diversity space, and have had multiple Director-Executive Director roles. Instead of just saying I was overqualified, they had the nerve to say I did not meet the minimum requirements for the role…are you serious?
I reached out thinking this was an error and they doubled-down! They said i specifically needed to have worked in a role where I was an admin. If that’s the case, then why do applications say “or related combination of education and experience will be considered”? I didn’t know that being a low level admin was some kind of rocket science. It’s “HR professionals” like this running on a power trip that make the job search so challenging today.

I was ghosted.

I interviewed with the CEO and VP. You’d think the organization would at least have the courtesy to follow-up with a rejection when you made it that far in the process.

I applied last January and it’s almost the new year. I wonder if they ever filled the position? Not a good look for an organization that’s supposed to be building a better democracy.
