Searching for a job during the pandemic has been rough to say the least. It's a constant sending of resumes into the void and slowly losing any shred of hope you may still be holding on to that you get a response. Not even a response for an interview but just a response. Even if it is a rejection, it's at least something - rather than just twiddling your thumbs and hoping that even though its been a month, two months, three months... that someone is just taking a long time with the hiring process, instead of simply not spending the time of day to ease the mind of an applicant. Yea the argument can me that time is money and taking even 30 seconds to send a form rejection email is time someone just doesn't have but I think that is a whole heaping load of bullshit.
Now not every company or firm falls in this category. Some do in fact send out a form email to say they went in a different direction or another candidate more accurately fit their needs. But those companies and firms are the exception in todays world. This. should. not. be. the. exception. to. the. rule. This should be the standard!! I know it's easy to push off the "hard" stuff but that's no excuse for a company actively listing an available position.
And while I'm on that note, it should be required that if a company posts a position, on their own website, on a third party host, etc. it should be required that they indicate if they are actively hiring or just simply resume collecting. Now, some companies do this and some third party hosting sites do as well, but again, it is the exception, not the rule. I understand that the COVID-19 pandemic pressed the pause button on a majority of companies hiring process. But this isn't to bitch about that. I mean maybe it is because firms still had job postings up but haven't been actively searching for a candidate... but that's not the point. Also, call me old fashioned but when they do respond, and want to set up an interview, getting a phone call instead of an email is just the best! ✌️
