Employers, Stop Ghosting Me!
Franklin Schneider, a New York City-based writer and author of 'Canned,' delves into the rudeness of the modern job market. He highlights the relief that comes with form rejections versus the sting of being ghosted. Age discrimination is unpacked through listener stories, and Schneider explains how the pandemic shifted power dynamics for job seekers. Gen Z faces unique ghosting challenges, and he argues technology has stripped the hiring process of empathy. Ultimately, he suggests that exposing these power imbalances could lead to positive change.
