A post from Mike LaPorte, a head of talent acquisition on LinkedIn:

"I owe job seekers an apology.

Not for anything I did intentionally. But for what the industry I've spent my career in has normalized.

We normalized ghosting candidates after interviews. Just never responding. Like the 3 hours they spent preparing and the PTO they burned to come in didn't matter.

We normalized job descriptions that are 40% aspirational fiction. Listing 15 "required" qualifications when we'd happily hire someone with 8 of them.

We normalized 6 round interview processes for mid level roles. Panel interviews where half the people in the room haven't read the resume.

We normalized asking candidates to show all their cards, current comp, competing offers, career goals, while giving them almost nothing in return.

We normalized treating candidates like a pipeline metric instead of people making one of the most consequential decisions of their lives.

I'm not saying every recruiter does this. I know a lot of great ones who fight these patterns every day.

But as an industry we've built a system that asks candidates to invest enormous time, energy, and emotional labor into a process that gives them almost nothing back unless they get the offer.

That's broken. And a lot of it has nothing to do with technology. It's choices we stopped questioning. But I do think we can build better systems and smarter tools to start fixing it.

What would you change first? Genuinely asking."

Then let us begin normalizing the acknowledgment and understanding of this grim reality so many have found themselves ensnared in. A large number simply don't know because they're not currently affected by it. The existence of this post alone is a wonderful beginning move.
