Employers being 'ghosted' by prospective employees
TAMPA, Fla. - A growing number of people are landing job interviews, and even job offers, but then not showing up for the prospective employer in what’s known as "job ghosting."
It’s a job seeker’s market right now with plenty of options, so business experts said that trend is forming among some candidates.
"It is, unfortunately, becoming somewhat of a norm. It’s being looked at as acceptable to ghost interview, which I would have never thought of a few years ago. But it’s becoming commonplace," said Russell Clayton, an instructor of business administration at USF Muma College of Business.
