Shouldn’t hide the company’s name.
Might go to doxing the poster if it’s a local company.
Wouldn’t it have been easier to just get AI to wrote the message and then just use that same canned response going forward instead of using AI to generate it each time? What a waste of resources
If it’s a canned response, why not just do it yourself? It’d take like 5 minutes. Oh, those skills are rotting because AI? Yeah.
Also people don’t know how to be social anymore so they find it easier to tell a robot to write a warm rejection email rather than writing one themselves.
because they probably fired the person who does it and filled the position with AI
I see this a lot. I got brought into a project where the entire CI/CD was a prompt.
Now I want to know the company.
He spent more time writing the prompt than he would with just writing an email. I think you dodged a bullet by not getting hired there
Also email templates are a solved problem, there is like no reason to use AI for this
I find it amusing that they tried to automate it with variables, etc, but seemingly wanted to make LLM generate a new response every time. Standard once written or even generated rejection form could’ve been more economically sound. But, but - then you wouldn’t up the metrics of AI usage in your department!
“Please generate an AI prompt for a polite rejection message for a candidate that wasn’t picked”
This is not a meme. This is just sad.
Reminds me of how “The Man from Mars” (by Stanisław Lem) finally understand what humor was about. Look at most jokes ignoring the humor and you find be an endless stream of tragedies.

I personally wouldnt insult someone for not considering a definition of a word that isnt even relevant in this context
Remember to use candidate name and company name variables.
Well it looks like this reminder worked 😆
Why not just say “we are sorry but we will not be moving forward with your application at this time” like a normal person?
Unless…
Why not ghost the candidate which seems to be the most normal response these days for some reason
22 downvotes from that company…
Downvotes could be about censoring the company name instead of exposing them.
As someone else in the comments here pointed out, if it’s a regional/local franchise or a small business then they could reveal their own location by revealing the company’s name.
Employers “mimimi, don’t write your cover letter with AI!!!”
This has increased after AI. Heck rejections come within a few seconds of applying. Once I got (what I presume an internal-only info) something akin to “this opening is just for compliance reasons. We are actually not hiring for this position”. This placeholder was sent with rejection email (again presuming its for internal info only)
Can’t that be reported to whatever government agency that made the requirement?
And this, friends, is why you use a human in the loop if you’re using AI
The whole point is they don’t care enough about you, the candiate, to put a human in the loop.
