‘A classic case of copy paste gone wrong’: Candidate receives a hilarious rejection email, followed by an apology after HR realizes they messed up

The interviewing process for a new job is so tedious. Nowadays you have to go through 5 interviews, 3 assignments and need a warm recommendation from the president. Seriously, things have gotten out of hand. Why is it so hard to get a job? The market is absolutely bonkers, jobs aren't paying well enough to keep up with inflation, and recruiters ghost you after 'being with you every step of the way' for 2 months. It's exhausting, disappointing, and discourages you from ever finding a job.

This candidate went through it all just to get a rejection letter via email. Yes, it was hard and demotivating, but the rejection letter wasn't actually all that bad… Until they got to a very specific section that made them gape at the screen in shock. Scroll down to find out what it was, and then what fellow job searchers had to say about it. Talk about awkward…

Then check out these employees who shared hilarious boss stories online.
