Met them at a university career fair, where the recruiter was really excited about me. I also had two employees offer to attach internal company recommendations.

I said sure, and they were attached to my application internally in their system.

Two whole weeks later, they asked for my transcripts, an odd request for a Masters student, but whatever. Sent them along. (GPA is 3.8, transcripts are great).

One week later, I got an auto-rejection email without even granting me a first interview or phone screening. The email said they were moving forward with other candidates (not that the funding had dried up or anything), and my favorite part was that it had a missing word in it.

I have a polished and well-rounded resume, a Masters, and 3 separate Co-Ops where I was offered a full-time position. I can't imagine what possible concerns would warrant not even granting me an interview.

Conclusion: Rejection is one thing; this was rude and unprofessional.
