Applied to their Maternity Cover role in Reading which is very close to my home and 100% for my background Proactively reached out to their recruiting leaders expressing interest in the opportunity and citing all relevant reasons, my motivation, why am I a good fit and what value do I bring to the table. Their leaders after connecting on LinkedIn completely ghosted me and never bothered or had courtesy to even respond to my messages. Few days later I receive an automated rejection mail from ICIMS (their ATS) with no reason for rejection. I understand if you are busy but frankly speaking you are not prioritising candidate experience and this will have adverse affect on your NPS scores in long run.
