The temerity of your comments about this person's frustration were completely inappropriate. I am an unwilling professional in the "job market/job hunt" and common courtesy simply does not exist. Consider yourself lucky you are employed and try to have just a shred of human decency and empathy. Employers invite our contact when they post job openings. Have the most basic courtesy possible and reply to each and every job seeker who thought YOU were worthy of consideration. Do not use the excuse of work load; expect the work load and hire some temps. "The way some people behave in their job search never ceases to amaze me." The way people like you, in your profession, act with such complete and callous disregard never ceases to amaze me. Frank I agree with the guy and Katherine and Any Professional and Me.

They are trying and know they have nothing to lose since they already aren't being taken seriously. To mock someone seeking a job isn't too kind when you have one. Maybe one day you will be out there just like they write and "Karma" will be your resume sent out to hundreds of jobs that you are more than qualified for to be taken on the rollercoaster ride of maybe, maybe I'll be working soon, maybe I'll finally be able to pay off these student loans going into default, maybe one day I can use my education and experience in a rewarding environment. Maybe instead you'll find your frustration posted on a website and snickered at for its enthusiasm and true words. I don't fault this person, they were honest and since when are people not supposed to have a bad day. I can see the frustration in their writing.

I think this job market has led employers to treat applicants inappropriately. However, if they do it during the application/interview, they probably do like-wise if they employ you. The interview process is a two-way street--the applicant evaluates the company and vice-versa.
