Wonder what's the percent of those applied were actually hired; I guess it's harder to find?
Last one gave me a hint, too many applicants. Most don’t bother.
How many applicants (roughly) have you had total? That would be a useful piece of information to put this anecdote in context.
That’s infeasible based on the number of candidates who have applied.
i've wondered if they track how many applicants come through this entry point
you mean 5%? Btw what's the source for 10,000 applications?
wonder how many applications they get through the application form.
Interesting that the appears to work for only some people. Does this imply a concerted effort at encouraging some above others to apply?
Simple. There are tons of these "good people" who apply, and they can only accept as many per batch.
There are thousands of people who apply. They can't possibly find the time to reply to all of them. Maybe a few of the borderline ones, but in reality you can't expect them to spend weeks responding to everyone.
