    Just a small comment: The following day is not really "too fast". I do interviews, I know wether or not we're going to proceed in the first 5min after the meeting. And the technical interview (with small code test) takes me about 30mins to review. Commented Sep 29, 2023 at 11:10

    @Martijn I'm not saying it takes longer to make a decision after an interview, I'm saying I don't think it's likely they submitted me to the client, and the client came back with a rejection within one day Commented Sep 29, 2023 at 14:34

    How, exactly, might that not be ethical? Commented Sep 30, 2023 at 23:49

    @TheWorkingMan "I'm saying I don't think it's likely they submitted me to the client" What would be the purpose of hiring a recruiter if they are going to ask you to decide for yourself if you want to hire every single applicant to the vacancy? The entire purpose of hiring a recruiter is to entrust them to filter out applicants that aren't a good fit. You may disagree about your fit and you may argue that the recruiter's process is flawed, but the fact of the matter is that the recruiter did nothing wrong. At worst, they're guilty of an imperfect interview process. Commented Oct 1, 2023 at 2:08

    It's totally normal and commonplace to do so; it's a non-issue. Commented Oct 1, 2023 at 13:50
