They Closed the Role and Told No One. He Filed a Complaint.

A Canadian company closed a vacant role and did not notify any of the applicants. One candidate waited six weeks in silence before discovering on his own that the position no longer existed. Rather than let it slide, he filed a formal complaint. The company, facing pressure, apologised. The recruiter who shared the story on Reddit noted: "Most people aren't asking for much when they apply. A yes or a no, even a late one, beats silence every time."
