The shit sandwich is typically sent in the dead of night from a no-reply address. It would help my filtering process if HR personnel would standardize the subject line to COMPUTER SAYS NO.

Yeah, better have new codes for these: 505, rejection. 707, screening. 909, interviews. 555, offer.

So it goes like this

Subject: status: 505 | position: bla bla

Body: bla bla
