The best way I’ve heard it explained is that excel is too good at doing too many, but it isn’t the correct tool for many of those things. Since it’s good and accessible, people make it work and then you get this jumbled mess of stuff after time passes.

I agree with you. If I interview someone, I make it a point to get back with news(good or bad) asap. I don’t sit on it. I give the information to my recruiter and ask the recruiter to get on top of a response.

I don’t know if we respond to candidates that don’t get interviews. I can recommend it. I’m sure our recruiting software can do it.

Man, I can say sometimes you’re right. But I have an open position on my team, I’ve received over 100 applications and something like 85% of them have no relevant experience. Do you actually expect me to try and talk to all of them? I do what I can and interview who I think fits best. It’s not perfect science but I have to work with what I have.
