We get a ton of inbound and typically only follow up when there’s a clear match to move forward. That said, I just joined the team and we’re working to improve that! Appreciate you applying and being interested in Fathom!

If you have that many candidates where you can't even answer them, Why are you here asking for more?

EDIT: I’m sure you have a dozen great candidates in your resume pile you reject for a type-o or an unknown school, or something. Do a second pass.

  • They do it for investors to show off the hiring "activity" and company growth. Bad moves though.

  • and as much as hiring is "broken" the part of the process that works well is letting people out of it without ghosting them. Even dinosaurs like ADP software get that part right.
