We asked 366 HR managers, “If you reject interviewed applicants, do you get back to them and let them know they weren’t selected?” Here’s what they said:
I almost always get back to them and let them know: 74%
I try to get back to them if I have the time: 23%
I don’t bother getting back to them: 3%
In a recent survey, job-hunters said their No. 1 pet peeve was “HR people not getting back to me.” If you’re one who does get back to them, pat yourself on the back. If nothing else, it’s good PR for your company.
