Guy Follows Up On Interview, Gets The Rudest Rejection Email In Response
Like most people, a man who attended a job interview, sent a follow up email to see how his interview went; what he got in response was one of the most outrageous emails ever.
There's nothing worse than rejection, especially when it comes to getting a job. When I first started applying for radio jobs, I remember the countless emails and letters that I got that were totally soul crushing but the one thing all those rejections had in common - it was like the person sending it had copied it out of their handbook; stamped their name on it and sent it. It was cold yet professional and didn't make the rejection any easier.
James Allen can feel all our pain. After a recent job interview, Allen decided to follow up to see how things went and what he got in return was one of the most insanely rude rejection emails in response.
Brobible posted a screen shot of the email that says:
James,
Sincere apologies for not replying to you today, as it happens I actually have a job, and other things to do with my day other than reply to you, when I had already had the misfortune of wasting 30 very long minutes of my life speaking to; not only the most inappropriate person for this job role, but probably for any role, you will spend the next few years applying for, only to get rejected as soon as they meet you.
You are without doubt one of the most irritating, rude, obnoxious and arrogant people I have had the misfortune to meet, and your email just solidifies this.
Also, for an old aesthetically challenged guy with no teeth you have an unbelievable amount of confidence!
So you say, you didn't notice the word 'professional' on our website... belive me, if I had been anything other than 'professional', I would have told you what I was actually thinking which was 'this guy is an absolute ****, get the **** out'.
But no, alas, I stayed 'professional'. I only wish I'd have seen your CV beforehand, to save us both the time, as I would have probably noticed your main job role as 'professional p****'.
Good luck for the future
Sarah
Holy cow, harsh. There might be a question as to whether or not the email is real, and it is. The woman who wrote the letter, Sarah Haseler, told the Daily Mail that she did indeed write the letter and her excuse for sending it is as ridiculous as the email itself. Haseler claims she read something that day that said if you're angry about something, you should write it down and get it all out to move on. Apparently, she even went as far as typing up another email for Allen but she sent the first draft in error. Yeah right.
Even if this guy was as big of a jerk as Haseler claims he was, did he still deserve to receive an unprofessional response?
