I'm good at reading people, and I get genuinely invested in the candidates I'm trying to place. But I'm stuck in the middle -- I get someone's hopes up, then the hiring manager changes what they want for the third time and the whole thing falls apart. I'm the one who has to deliver the bad news to a person I actually care about.
More people experience this than they realize.
You're caught between candidates you care about and managers who keep changing their minds.
