I did my research, and I get it, with the amount of traffic and candidates they can't get back to everyone.
That's why I try and have a relationship with a couple of recruiters, but its' been really obvious, you ring back and get voicemail, you email and dead air.
Whereas previously there chasing you 5 times a day.
It sucks balls, rejection is one thing, I mean, anyone remember the old "dear john letters" people would respond back to your letter saying "sorry you are not sucesfull this time"
I mean shi& how hard is it to just drop an email, takes 2 seconds
I guess also the main reason is they DONT want to take the time to give you feedback
It's usually, you where not a right fit, you nearly got it, they wont say.
Many many years ago, I was told (back home) to ask for feedback on why you where not successful, apparently larger companies had to have a reason, otherwise you could claim, sexism,racism etc
NOW... pffft, you get nothing
