Ehh, that's possible. Given that I seldom get any responses back from
them, I can't tell whether they (a) are using a recruiter who hates my
guts, (b) are using a recruiter who is utterly incompetent, (c) are
doing the recruitment themselves, and are so utterly flat-out busy
that they can't fire off a simple email to their applicants, or (d)
are doing it themselves, and don't consider failed applicants worthy
of an email. Could be any of the above, for all I can tell. Or (e),
the job was posted from just outside the Bermuda Triangle.
