But we'd spend all day replying to emails if we did that. Ideally we'd at least email back to say hey thanks but your application was unsuccessful, here's some ways you can improve your application and please try again in 6 months. Ideally we'd email each person back and let them know where they're going wrong. And the fact they're doing it wrong in this applcation probably means they're spending all day applying for jobs, getting it wrong all over the place. It's easy to be flippant and annoyed, but each application is a person aspiring to move forward with their life, and then you get their resume and you can immediately see 5 things they're doing wrong. We don't have a job application email address now because they are frustrating to go through. It can be frustrating to go through job applications and to be honest I really hate it, but I love finding new talented people to work with so I do it.

When we advertise for jobs we get a lot of applications.
