Misleading and Disorganized Process
I applied for the [nombre del puesto] position and initially the process seemed standard and promising. However, the experience quickly became frustrating.
After completing several steps, I was told that providing references from former supervisors was "the last part of the process." Based on this, I rushed to contact them, putting my professional relationships on the line. After submitting everything as requested, I received no follow-up, no updates, and no closure. I was completely ghosted.
The recruiters created a false sense of urgency that felt manipulative, and the lack of transparency throughout the process was very disappointing. If a company asks candidates to involve their professional network, the least they can do is follow through with honest communication.
I would advise future candidates to ask for a clear, written outline of all the steps in the process before taking any action that could affect their professional relationships.
