09. Four Ways to Handle Ghosting from Recruiters (Part 2)

Ghosted by a recruiter - again?

You followed the process, nailed the call, and felt a real connection. Then… silence.

In last week’s episode, we uncovered why recruiters ghost — the real behind the scenes reasons most candidates never hear. But knowing why is only half the battle.

In this follow-up episode of 𝗚𝗲𝘁 𝗛𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗧𝗼𝗱𝗮𝘆, I will share 4 practical strategies to help you stay calm, confident, and in control when a recruiter goes quiet.

You’ll learn:

  • How to follow up professionally without looking desperate
  • Why putting all your hopes on one role is a dangerous trap
  • What questions to ask upfront to avoid confusion later
  • When silence is the answer - and how to move on without burning out

🎙️ If you're an international jobseeker in the Netherlands or Europe, this episode is your job search reset button.

I am an Italian Recruiter living in the Netherlands. I work for a recruitment agency in Amsterdam and I am the host of Get Hired Today, where I share job tips combined with some mindset tools for expats like me.

I’m not just a Recruiter, outside of work, I’m a normal guy who loves music, singing, baking healthy treats, travelling, and staying active through fitness. These things keep me balanced, especially when life gets hectic.

This podcast is not about being perfect, but it’s about growing together, step by step, through real conversations and some nice practical advice.
