Thread regarding Lumen Technologies layoffs

Hiring process

I applied to several jobs. Got an interview that went great. Haven’t heard anything in several weeks. Also haven’t been told no or a rejection email. Just been sitting there.

How long is the process?

A few years back when I was hired, it took 6 months. I was RIF'd about 18 months later for the 2nd time. If your over 50, forget it. AGEISM

You are seeing the first RED flag of employment here! Move on and thank us later or move in and do your soul searching later. Either way, a 5 yr max employment out of ANY tech company moving forward.

IF they don't cancel the job you applied to, it can take months. Lumen leadership can't go in the same direction for 5 minutes at a time. The ONLY thing they seem to be able to decide on consistently is to lay people off.

They’re currently not hiring. They’re busy dumping employees like yesterday’s trash.

They’ll ask you to take more of thier bad debits as they give you one month severance

Most job posting on the ads are called the ghost jobs.
It's an artificial illusion to make them look successful to boost their bottom line.
This has been going on for years.
Most applications are discarded after a friendly response.
Go look up what ghost jobs are.

Depends what you applied for, but usually a month or 2 at the fastest.

They are probably still interviewing others for the job, or waiting to hear back from their 1st choice. That 1st choice person might be waiting to hear back from other companies where they're in the running to be hired, so it's all a juggling time/waiting game.

Be patient, because not hearing anything is better than a definite no.
Since it's been a few weeks though, try emailing your contact there to follow up with them and let them know that you're still really interested in the job. Ask them then of when they expect to be making a decision.

All job applications are handled by the AI. No human ever looks at it.
The AI will eventually contact you if you're the candidate meets all credentials.
