In a recent amusing incident, a company's job rejection email template went viral after a candidate received it with placeholder text still intact.
The email, sent by the Hiring Team, started conventionally, thanking the candidate for their time and expressing appreciation for their qualifications. However, the email contained placeholders like "[say something personal about the candidate]" and "[REJECTED APPLICANT]."
Social media users seized the opportunity to share humorous responses they would send back to the company. Some suggested rules to avoid such mishaps, while others joked about offering their services to proofread rejection emails.
