Lazy Recruiters Sending Email Rejections
Anyone else running into recruiters who only send generic email rejections for roles you interviewed for? I get if it was just a phone screening but I recently had an interview with a company where I passed the phone screen, completed a video interview with the hiring manager, and came in for a face-to-face panel interview with the whole team and only received an email rejection with no feedback. This is the second time this happened to me in the last three months. At least have the balls to call me and tell me. A phone call is the least you can do after wasting my time, energy, and money coming in for an interview. A generic email just screams lazy recruiter who is bad at their job and makes me feel better about getting rejected. I definitely don't want to work for a company who clearly couldn't care less about how they appear to potential employees.
