I can understand being frustrated here but how do you not realize how much worse you are making it by making this post?

This is going to happen every once in a while, every recruiter, hiring manager, and HR professional should know that. If it happens a lot it's because your interview process sucks and you are everyone's last resort if better jobs don't pan out. This happens much less frequently to employers people actually want to work for.

HR people suffer from mini God Complexes.

All of upper management as well.

A demigod complex, perhaps?

It also happens very often, but in reverse. Company promising things and suddenly just not even calling back/msg back.

I bet those bastards also have several people lining up for their jobs !! /s lmao
