Why don't HR in many companies inform the interviewer when the interview fails?

Some students asked: after the interview results come out, only the candidates who passed the interview will be notified, and the candidates who failed the interview will not be notified. Is this disrespectful to job seekers? Or HR is not professional enough?

Generally speaking, most enterprises really don't give notice to applicants who fail in the interview, but they should also divide the recruitment channels. Generally, candidates recommended by internal recommendation channels and headhunting channels will basically reply, but candidates who submit resumes through websites and other channels will often be rejected without further notice. Of course, this is not an industry practice. After all, each company can have its own different ways and practices. Sometimes the ideas of the person in charge of the enterprise or the person in charge of HR and recruitment will have different influences on this matter, so there is really no unified standard for this matter.

But I want to make it clear that not notifying the applicant is not disrespectful, nor is HR unprofessional. As an HR with more than ten years of recruitment experience, from the perspective of practical work, the reasons for not notifying are as follows: the cost of one notification is too high. As far as the actual recruitment situation of several companies where I work is concerned, we have made statistics. On average, about 50- 100 people submit resumes for each position (even more if it is a campus recruitment position), about 8- 10 people enter the initial test, about 3-5 people enter the second test, and finally only 1-2 people are accepted.

China's culture pays more attention to face. Rejecting others is not a "good thing". To do such a thing, everyone naturally has some rejection, so many HR and interviewers are reluctant to do it. Unless the company forces it, few people will actually send a rejection letter to the applicant. It's not difficult to send one or two, but it's difficult to send them to every rejected candidate. This is really not something that ordinary people can insist on. Will the person who receives the rejection letter really be happy?

Does everyone really want to receive a rejection letter? Not exactly. Once a company tried to send a rejection letter to the rejected candidate, "I'm sorry to inform you that you didn't pass the interview in our company." As a result, some candidates thought that they were sprinkling salt on the wound and returned a bunch of ugly words; Some candidates wrote back to ask why the interview failed, hoping to get further guidance; There are also candidates who express great incomprehension and even anger at their failure to apply for a job, asking the company to give an explanation, asking for the contact information of the interviewer, asking for a re-interview, etc. In short, when the forest is big, everyone has it.
