8 minutes rejection

Aug 21, 2020 23 Comments

So I applied to a Salesforce job that said "DevOps Engineers All Levels (Senior/Lead/Principal) (Multiple Locations)"

I received a "application received" email and just 8 mins later another one with "At this time, we have decided to move forward with other candidates." email.

Normally I'd just move on, it's the only reasonable thing to do, but 8 minutes got me thinking. I think I spent longer than that duplicating my resume on their form lol.

What can be things that'd trigger immediate rejections in 8 mins or less. In this case it's unlikely to be actual qualifications because the posting was really wide open.
