Let’s talk about this job market… because whew. 😮🏽💨
Between sending out countless applications, being ghosted by recruiters, sitting through 4+ round interview processes, and applying to roles with no salary listed—job searching right now is draining time, money, and energy.
Multiple panels. “Final” rounds that aren’t final.
Hours of prep, PTO used, money spent on childcare, transportation, outfits, résumé updates, and emotional energy invested—only to be met with silence or finally hear back and the pay doesn’t match the process.
This is exactly why I addressed recruiter ghosting, long interview cycles, lack of pay transparency, and the real cost to candidates on the latest Yada Yada Talks episode—and I know I’m not alone.
👇🏽 I want to hear from YOU:
• How much time and money have you invested in your job search?
• Have recruiters or companies ghosted you?
• Have you gone through 4+ rounds for one role?
• Was salary ever shared—or did it change at the end?

Let’s share, validate, and push for better—because candidates deserve respect, transparency, and accountability.
