It was your average panel interview that you would expect from a higher ed institution. I followed up with appreciation and a status check a couple of weeks following the interview and....ghosted. I suppose I should be thankful in a way that I dodged a bullet with this organization. In this day and age, any company or institution that is unwilling to value the time and effort of potential candidates is not one that is worth devoting time toward. I strive for professional courtesy and I'm just uninterested in working alongside individuals who believe they are above treating people decently. I've had a few interviews in my day and, whether I received the offer or not, there was always respectful communication processes in place. Not here!
