Yeah, it’s not 2008. No one is surprised by this anymore.

It's older than that. I remember submitting applications in the 90s and getting the thin envelope in the mail! But quite frequently no response at all.

NP and that's sort of understandable because it takes time and costs money to mail rejection letters. When you have an application system it should be really easy to auto reject applicants. Also, if someone takes the time for an interview it is incredibly rude to not give them the courtesy of a generic rejection.

There is nothing more infuriating how companies and organizations have become completely emboldened to post job ads they have very little intention to fill and then ghosting candidates after multiple interviews. It wasn't like this until recently. This is just cruel and unprofessional behavior. It's one thing to not respond to an application. But have the dignity to keep candidates appraised of the progress on filling the opening, even if you don't intend to fill it. Bullshlt like this in the 2020 job market is so frustrating.

Having been a part of some recent hiring processes, this is happening because many places have cut back on HR staff and the HR staff that normally handle a lot of the stuff have too much to do. And those of us on the manager/technical side are not supposed to reach out to the applicants, only the HR staff is supposed to reach out to applicants.

Not a good excuse, but an excuse nonetheless.

Yeah so rude. Karma.

First time I was offended and then had empathy, now the second time I think it's just rampant. The hiring people are busy, they don't want to deliver negative news to you and so they just ghost.

Maybe this will save someone, just move on and don't think too much about it. I don't remember it being this way, I think it's easier now with online interviews and tech. Easy come/easy go.
