Initially, there was an employee screening at a job agency. Qualified candidates were sent to the employer's place remaining rounds. Candidates were made to sit and were called one after another to a cabin where a telephonic round was conducted. Qualified candidates were hired.

The hiring process starts well with an initial screening and final interview, but the post-interview stage shows a complete lack of organizational standards. Despite following up multiple times via email and social media, I was completely ghosted after a single, brief response, having been told they would update me soon, but they have not reached out ever since. Leaving a candidate hanging for weeks instead of sending a simple rejection is highly unprofessional and a major disrespect to my time. The job market is difficult, and companies must respect applicants' effort. I will never apply to HGS again, as they have shown clear red flags. An automated reply telling applicants to contact a support email does not hide how disorganized and unacceptable the communication framework is, and the fact that candidates are being treated as entirely disposable data. I am sharing this to provide transparency for future candidates. After completing the final interview stage, communication completely ceased. Despite following up, I received no update. Candidates invest a lot of time into this process, and there should be accountability regarding basic communication. I hope this review serves as a necessary wake-up call for how people are treated. There is a clear double standard in the recruitment process. Communication is only given to accepted applicants, while rejected and backup candidates are completely ghosted. It truly makes one wonder how a company's customers would feel if they knew how poorly job candidates are treated behind the scenes. There must be professional accountability for this level of disorganization, and I am speaking out so future candidates know exactly what to expect.
