That requires one to spend time reading and thinking about whether someone falls under "can't write a coherent sentence", "not remotely qualified", and "this is a cv?!". We would always give detailed feedback to everyone who came to interview, but candidates who fell far from the field didn't get more than the automated reply. Originally I tried responding to everyone, but it's a sucker's game. It isn't just the time spent replying in the first place, even if it only takes a moment, it's the replies asking "why do you think you're qualified to tell if I'm qualified", "here's my creative writing piece from 11th grade, for a developer position, read it please", "I'll sue you, fucker! I know my rights!", "ok I understand can you teach me to program?", "ok I understand, here's my startup idea, what do you think?". All it takes is one candidate who responds irrationally to a rejection and your entire day, and attitude to other candidates, can be blown up. So, just like there's a bar for an invite to interview, there's a bar for a positive rejection. |
