I’d feel more considered if I’d gotten no email at all

I don’t think this is AI tbh. Crap like this is where AI learned to talk like that. I’ve been getting these kind of emails way before LLMs were a thing
Yeah this screams templated email to me. You don’t need an AI to sound generic, you can just use a generic template. With the number of emails they send out I seriously doubt they want to spend the money on rejection emails generated by an AI.
Indeed, probably they had their automated rejection emails already.
Schrodinger’s em dash
There’s no space between the dash though. AI does em dash like – this, and the email did it like–this.
That’s not an em dash in your comment. In the email it looks to be an em dash.
Here are the three dashes: em dashes (—), en dashes (–) , and hyphens (-)
It’s the width that makes the em dash so noticeable in ai content.
I know, but you know what I meant. It’s the spaces next to the em dash which scream AI. If there aren’t spaces, then it’s probably not AI.
i usually put spaces around em dashes because it’s slightly more readable. i hate LLMs so much
right, good, that’s also for humans to do. But LLMs exclusively do it that way too.
I still think this one is AI, but either way the way this worded feels very patronizing. Just a completely hollow message. Should probably cross post to work reform or something.

I hate when I get ghosted. A rejection email lets me close the loop with that company and move on. Otherwise, I feel like “there’s still a chance!” and that’s worse.
I’m a recruiter, this is 100% their default rejection template. It’s pretty standard, but at least they let you know! I’ve been looking for a new role lately and you’re lucky to get that DQ email and not just ghosted.
This is how they’ve done rejections for the last 25 years. Form letters. Not AI in this case. Also waayyyyy better than being ghosted. When you’re ghosted, you have no idea if they saw your application or if they’re still considering or what. There’s an anxiety that a job offer could come through after you accept another offer and what if they offer a bit more money? It becomes a whole thing. Honestly, I’d rather receive an actual AI rejection than be ghosted.
As I continued to bolster my skills, resume and connections any company that ghosted me I’ve ghosted or blacklisted.
Now, 10 years later with an in-demand skill set I have companies reach out to interview, and if it’s a company who’s ghosted me in the past I either ghost them, or tell them “Due to past experiences of being ghosted by your company, I won’t interview.”
I really do encourage people to just treat these companies the same, don’t give them the time of the day.
This reads more like a standard form rejection letter than a slop rejection letter.
Most companies would want them to be form letters so they don’t end up sued by someone who thinks they were rejected for a protected reason.
Not AI. I’ve gotten enough emails exactly like that to know that its a form letter provided by the recruiting platforms. AI is never that consistent.
Im tired of the media still trying to convince us the econmy is good when we are clearly in a depression and the worst job market sine the 2008 crash.
A US.domainname suggests it’s some gigantic mega-corporation, huh?
Nah, that’s the subdomain, it could be the start of any company’s email address – you could happily own and send from hello@us.reygle.com, for example.
Same energy.
Honestly I assume rejection as a default when I apply for any job. Until I got proof it isn’t wise to think I’m in.
