    On the other side…

    I’m so dead sick of those “thank you for applying, you are so awesome and amazing! But we went with another guy” emails

      The alternative is to not know, I don’t care if they send a nicely worded rejection over ghosting.

      A lot of bitter job-hunters in this post.

      I’d rather have that email than being ghosted by the company you applied at. Which happens more often than not.

      What do you want to read if you were really good, but the other candidate was a touch better? Do you really want to receive a “fuck you” letter?

      At least it’s something to let you know. I got down to a final 2 interview and haven’t heard anything from the company in a week even though I thought I had pretty good chances. I’d rather take a wishy washy answer over no answer at all.
