Job hunting is a lot different in my country and field. I usually get a personal email from either the department lead or the CEO no matter the result from the application. It does depend a bit on the company though. The big multinational companies are a lot colder.
Correct. Much smaller country with a much more limited employee pool, means the companies will have to show a bit of respect to the job seekers. Don’t wanna piss someone off they may need later, or worse, piss someone off who tells everyone the company is shit and to be avoided. It does depend a lot on the field and region though.
Or just a small industry where everyone knows everyone else. I personally know probably 3/4 of all the hiring managers in my area for my field. Hell, two of them are in my weekly board game group. I could literally text someone for work right now and be hired before my DoorDash driver arrives with my dinner.
But during COVID, the entire industry was dry as a bone, and we lost a lot of good workers to other industries. As with everything, it entirely depends on the nature of the work.
man, have you tried job hunting lately?
it’s a nice day when i get an automated rejection email instead of the usual deafening silence
and when an actual human replies??? highlight of the month

What country is this, Candyland?
Judging by the tld on their instance, maybe Denmark.
Yes, Candyland.

this too shall pass, keep going
Come to think of it, the usual roar of recruiter calls and emails has quoted down over the past couple months. Kinda peaceful.
