Like many of us, I am job hunting. I send out cover letter, resumes, and apps to any position I might be remotely qualified for. Most I never hear back from -- I do appreciate getting an email that says, "Thanks but no thanks."
Anyway, I got an email from a job I applied for. It was not a job I thought I'd get, so I was not surprised to see it was a rejection letter. However, what killed me is what it said:
"We thank you for your interest in our XXXXXXXXXXX position. The search committee has met and phone interviewed twelve individuals who exceeded the qualifications of the position. Of the twelve, six have been chosen for in person interviews.
Thank you for your interest in XXXXXXXX. We wish you success in your future."
Um, thanks for letting me know you interviewed a bunch of people and that I wasn't one of them.
