Previous Episode: Adjusting to Remote Working

Getting ghosted in the professional world is becoming increasingly common, whether it's during the job application process, business relationships with clients or vendors, or even after a long-term partnership. Technology has made it easier than ever to apply for jobs or connect with potential clients, but it has also made it easier to overlook or forget about certain candidates or business opportunities. Additionally, people have become more comfortable communicating via technology, which can make it easier to avoid uncomfortable conversations or simply ignore someone if you don't feel like responding. Being ghosted can be incredibly frustrating and demoralizing, but there are steps you can take to increase your chances of getting a response, such as following up and making personal connections. And for companies or individuals who are doing the ghosting, improving communication and being transparent can go a long way towards building trust and maintaining positive relationships.
