Phone interview with recruiter On-site interview with org leader Recruiter said would be in touch after Christmas. Two weeks later, with a competing offer pending, I reached back out to the recruiter. Ghosted. If you are going to meet with someone in person, you should have sufficient professionalism to follow up with them on next steps. It takes less than a minute to send an email that says "we've chosen to move forward with other candidates" and you probably have something like that automated in your HR system anyway. Just do it.
