Do you ever get rejection letter?

I hate receiving rejection letters. It's even worse when companies don't even respond to your application.

Some companies take half of the CVs, and look through those. The rest go in the bin, even if some of those applicants would have had an easy shot at an interview.

But yeah, usually you can tell if they won't respond with a rejection when they say things like 'if you haven't received a response within _____ weeks, please assume your application was unsuccessful.'

Good luck!

I prefer to get rejection letter, it's better than nothing though.

The company I apply for the job is owned by students, so I guess they wouldn't get too many applications. But yes you're right, I should assume my application was unsuccessful. I was so naive that I assumed the director was too busy and the work was overwhelming.
