Why It Happens

Why candidates lose interest along the way

Most candidates do not drop out because they are uninterested. They disengage because the hiring process fails to keep them informed or connected.

Slow or inconsistent communication from recruiters

Generic outreach that fails to capture interest

Long gaps between application, interviews, and feedback

Lack of clarity on where they stand in the process
