Better late than never?

Via BlueSky, this hilarious email to Dr. Andrew Thaler. 

(Why does it seem like HR departments aren't very good at all of this communicating?) 

(my crazy idea: a federal law that requires employers to provide a rejection with 6 to 9 months of initial application. Maybe it should be accompanied by some kind of lawsuit amnesty? (i.e. you can't be sued for simply saying "no" to an applicant), although you would want to have way to preserve the ability to sue for legitimate discrimination claims.)

  1. So...I shouldn't expect a rejection letter from WM until 2033...when the "Applied Science" department may not even exist. Good to know!

  2. I had a couple of on-site interviews at mid-size schools in 2006 I'm still waiting to hear back from.
