Lately I find myself wishing that out of these hundreds of jobs I've applied for they would at least take the time to acknowledge they received my information but chose to go another direction. Feedback would be wonderful. I guess I should be careful what I wish for.
I applied for a Compliance Manager position with a national corporation around May. "After carefully reviewing" my application and resume, they chose to consider other applicants. A let down, but I appreciated the courtesy email so at the very least I could stop wondering if I had a chance. A few weeks later, I received another email telling me the same thing. That very same week, I received a physical rejection letter from the same company, for the same position.
Yesterday I received another email thanking me for my interest in their company, but they were considering other applicants. Very same job I applied for in May, very same application period. It wasn't as if the person hired didn't work out and they chose to reconsider me, from what I can tell it's still the same posting number as it was in May.
At this point I'm not sure if I should email them back and tell them I understand that I'm no longer being considered and this is teetering on the edge of mocking. . . Or if I just chalk it up to the wonders of technology and then silently thank Al Gore for inventing the Internet and thus the Internet based application process this company is using.
Rejection. Like a boss.
