I applied online. The process took 4 days.

You spend time applying and filling in all their forms, writing a cover letter, and so on. Then you get a generic denial without so much as a custom subject title to remind you which job you applied for. This is frustrating because on LinkedIn they seem to continuously repost jobs. It's not clear if this is due to new opportunities opening up or simply because of a quick turnover. Either way, I feel like for a company that's hiring developers, it shouldn't be too hard to at least set up some form of automation to change the subject title of your generic default denial email to specify which job you applied for. Even I can do that with MailChimp and a couple of minutes to spare, and I'm apparently not good enough for the junior role. So it's quite disappointing to see this.

Please include your cover letter: 1 answer.
