I was laid off in October 2025 and have been searching for a full-time position ever since. Recently, I was approached for a contractor role that seemed promising; the job description felt like a perfect fit. I went through two interviews that went really well, and they even mentioned a start date of June 22nd. I was excited and hopeful, especially since I was lined up for a third interview with an account executive from the recruitment company, who was supposed to facilitate the connection with the potential employer. However, the third interview, scheduled for last Thursday, never happened. I waited until Friday and reached out to the recruiter, who informed me that the account executive was out sick and promised to get back to me on Monday. Unfortunately, Monday came and went without any communication. I decided to follow up with the recruiter again, but I've been completely ignored. What struck me as odd was that on the day I was supposed to have my third interview, I received a customer satisfaction survey from the recruitment company. This raised some alarm bells for me, but I tried to stay calm, thinking it might just be an administrative error. I find it strange that they would send a CSAT survey if I wasn't selected for the role, especially when I was still in the running. This experience has been quite unusual for me, and I wanted to share it as I haven't encountered anything like this before. Thanks for reading.
