Dear Ian

Thank you for your recent application for Leaders for Business 2008 which we have now been able to review in greater detail.

Due to very strong competition for this vacancy, we regret to advise you that after careful consideration, our decision is not to take your application further on this occasion.

Should you wish to re-apply for a similar position again in the future, please note we cannot accept another application within one year.

Due to the high volume of applications we are unable to offer feedback.

May we thank you for the time you have given us and wish you every success in the future.

Yours sincerely

I have to be honest; I can't really remember applying to BA. This has, however, raised an important point. I will probably be on the never give a job interview to this person list of all the major companies that advertised in The Guardian dated 29/09/07.

Dear applicant

Thank you for the time and effort you have spent in applying for the position of Development Associate, Corporate Relations at London Business School.

The post attracted a number of qualified and capable individuals, which made short listing extremely difficult. Having completed this process, we regret that you have not been successful on this occasion. While your mix of knowledge, skills and experience was relevant to the position, there were candidates who had a profile that matched our requirements a little more closely than your own.

We would like to thank you for the interest you have shown in London Business School and wish you well in your search for a suitable position.

Yours sincerely

Oh well never mind.

The Christmas present is really fantastic, but it has not arrived yet. My other little project has taken another turn for the better, with one more recruit. All to be revealed after Christmas Day...
