I’m 99% certain I lost a job I was really interested in, because my internet was experiencing service degradation during the video interview and it was affecting my stream.
This also happened to me. I had an interview on the phone in which I got amazing feedback. I then had my second interview online and had trouble with my audio. After that, they ghosted me.
I understand that, in many ways, ghosting is normal. Still, that first call’s feedback made me think they wanted to hire me.

I can believe it. I imagine a potential employer would be concerned about that especially if it’s a work from home thing.
It’s too bad really, because it’s entirely out of your control for the most part.
I do all my work from home (free lance), but I always use wired Ethernet to minimize potential problems.
Ethernet won’t help you, when your home connection is POS… Speaking from my own experience.
No shit
