> I wish they would just say as much

Recruiters and subsequently hiring teams are often told they can't give much actual feedback to candidates, out of a fear for legal challenges. I cannot assess the validity of these fears, just relaying what I heard. I guess folks have been burned when their presumably-good faith attempts at feedback were twisted into inclusion and equal opportunity cases (which are also important subjects that I don't want to dismiss either).
