HR sends biting email to applicant who declined their interview request, claim they lack 'professionalism': 'I’ve already accepted a job and joined'

If you're declining a job interview, do you still have to try to impress them?

Looking for a job is not fun. It requires a lot from you, and you aren't always able to give. It requires a lot of pitching yourself at every turn, and that can take a lot out of you. If you want a new job, you probably have some level of dissatisfaction in your life. You probably don't take it lightly. But you also have to ask for what you want when you want it. Or else people might take advantage of you. Because the job market is so tough, you really have to look out for yourself, because no one else will. 

There are so many annoying double standards in the world of job hunting. Jobs are allowed to ghost you without warning, and they do it all the time. How many times have you sent in a job application just to hear absolutely nothing forever and ever? It's kind of the expected mode. But the minute you hear from them, you're supposed to be trigger-ready to send anything they need, and be anywhere they ask at the drop of a hat. But what about your needs and wants? What about your life, which is more often than not takes priority? Recruiters and HR managers don't always make it easy to be on their side. They want what they want when they want it, and nobody else gets a lot of wiggle room. That's what happened in this story.
