I built https://ghostedd.com/ so that candidates can "do something" about getting ghosted as I, personally, feel powerless whenever I get ghosted and sending follow ups can get annoying. I'm not sure why a website like this hasn't been built yet but I hope this website will thrive and alert companies that it's not cool to ghost. I also hope that it'll give future candidates peace of mind when it comes to thinking if they've been ghosted or not. I plan on making this project open source too for transparency if there's enough people who are interested in contributing. It's time to hold recruiters/companies accountable.

Love this! This is one way that job seekers can have some dignity and power by letting others know which companies ghosted them! What are some ways to verify the user isn't lying about their story though? @mookentooken

@shagun_mistry Thanks Shagun and good point! We can't really detect if a user is lying about their story but we do have precautions like a moderation system to prevent any violence/harassment from happening. We also have stories marked as "unverified" by default so that site visitors can take these stories with a grain of salt. Companies/users can also report stories they deem inappropriate!

Like your motivation. I also find being ghosted by companies annoying when I was looking for my first job several years ago. I got used to it but never thought of a tool to help me out. This one is brilliant! But how do you manage to predict the "ghosting" action? How would you know?

@mookentooken I see! Then one of the important work for you is to have users as many as possible

Accountability when it comes to job hunting is a real issue - lots of people I know have gone through multiple stages of interview, with test tasks, only to be ghosted without feedback. It's about time there's a way to keep companies and recruiters accountable!

Congrats on the launch! I absolutely love this! As a Freelancer, I contact companies and recruiters all the time. I get ghosted so often, even when they contact me directly. I will share this with everyone I know!

I have been getting ghosted a lot recently and it is super disheartening, especially when you want feedback to know what you are doing wrong. Hopefully some accountability will give companies more incentive to actually respond, even if it is just to say: "Hey, ya didn't get the job and we had too many applications to give personal feedback." Even that is more acceptable than radio silence!

Why don't you integrate with platforms like LinkedIn, it will help you to verify if the report which user did file is genuine or not. Also it's availability will be higher for users.
