LETTER REJECTING A JOB APPLICANT WITHOUT INTERVIEW

As a job applicant, nothing is worse than hearing nothing from a prospective employer. Job applicants who are not selected for an interview deserve a rejection letter so that they can move on with their job search.

For every job you post you likely will receive more applications than you can handle. Responding to all the job applicants is time-consuming but marks you as a desirable employer of choice and encourages a potential employee to apply again when you post another position for which the applicant may qualify.

This is a sample job applicant rejection letter which you can customize for the people you do not select for a job interview.

Note: Since many of these applications arrive via email, a job applicant rejection letter via email is acceptable.
