Rejecting a Rejection

Looking for a job? Sick of getting your resumé rejected? Why not fire off your own rejection letter of the original rejection?

John Kador does just that with his rejection rejection letter.

Money quote: “I find that your rejection does not meet with my requirements at this time. As a result, I will be starting employment with your firm on the first of the month.”

Wow, this made my day. It’s ironic how you will come across something like this, and experience the same thing.

Cheers,

This is so funny. I wonder if anybody has actually sent one and what the reponse was?

It might be fun to apply for a job that I have absolutely no chance of getting, just to send the rejection rejection letter.

OMG, YOU FUCKING THEIF YOU STOLE MY IDEAS! damn you and you mind reading ways! lol I have done this a few time already. I had a response to one once, they rejected my rejection rejecting them. I think they found it rather humorous! Now eat waffels and die CHUMMER!

Firstly - Your site rocks, I found it whilst surfing for links on dropcatching domains - and now I’m hooked deeper and deeper. Will I get any work done today?
We had someone reply to our rejection letter with comedy - We used the phrase “a stronger candidate” - and we had an offer letter back asking to set up an arm wrestle - or if the other candidate was female, they would consider mud wrestling.
Very amusing - still didn’t employ them though! - they knew bugger all about HTML - but probably would have been amusing down the pub!
Keep up the good work!
Rich.

I was just typing a response to a rejection letter and didn’t know what to really say but this is hilarious. If my inner thoughts ruled that is precisely how I would state it. Thank you for the good laugh.
