"More than half of job seekers, 53%, experienced ghosting in the past year, hitting a three-year high, according to a new report from pre-employment testing company Criteria."
"Recruiters are inundated, screening methods are less reliable, and communication suffers, according to Josh Millet, CEO of Criteria."
"About 81% of recruiters admitted their employers post 'ghost jobs' - roles that don't exist or are already filled - to maintain a presence on job boards."
Job seekers are increasingly experiencing ghosting, with 53% reporting this issue in the past year, a three-year high. AI tools enable candidates to submit numerous tailored applications, complicating the hiring process for recruiters. As a result, hiring managers struggle to differentiate between resumes. Additionally, 81% of recruiters acknowledge posting 'ghost jobs'—positions that are either nonexistent or already filled—to maintain job board visibility or evaluate competitors. This situation leads to unreliable screening methods and poor communication.
