Why You’re Not Hearing Back After An Interview (And It’s Not Just You)

You’re sending out applications, prepping for interviews, doing everything right…And yet , you're getting ghosted, roles are put on hold, or the job vanishes after five interviews.
It makes you wonder: "Why can nobody find a job right now? Is the job market broken?"

In this episode of the Work Happier Podcast, Sho breaks down 5 of the WORST job search experiences we all face from ghost jobs and cancelled roles to ATS black holes and interview ghosting.

📉 We’ll talk about:
(0:00)✔️ Introduction
(0:38)✔️ What you need to know
(1:22)✔️ The ATS (Applicant Tracking System) and resume myths
(3:41)✔️ “The role is on hold” or is it a lie?
(5:29)✔️ What to do when you get ghosted after interviews
(7:52)✔️ Why jobs get cancelled mid-process
(9:40)✔️ How to deal with job search burnout
(11:26)✔️Recap: Is the hiring process really broken?

You’re not alone. And you’re not behind.
