I just filled out an application simple Admin position at Penske (12 years of admin experience). I have been unemployed for nearly 9 months after my previous employer moved offices to a town out of range for me. The Penske app required tons of personal information and two essays. I received an auto-reply 5 minutes later saying someone will review my credentials and get back to me. 5 minutes after that, I received an email stating that my qualifications didn't align with needs and they're moving on with other candidates. The response was way too fast for someone to have actually reviewed everything. This makes me suspicious that something was an automatic trigger to reject my application. I'd be disappointed to learn that it is due to my age or length of unemployment...
