How form letter-ish is this?

Posted in Businesson Oct 29, 2007

A couple of weeks ago, I had an interview on campus with a recruiter for HP. The interview went ok I guess, and I was encouraged to apply for positions on their website. Just a couple of days ago, I received an email from “HP Human Resources” which started off:

Thank you for participating in the interviews we recently conducted on campus. Our recruiter was very impressed with your knowledge and abilities and we are actively reviewing your skills and interests against openings within HP.

My question is, how form letter-ish is this? Is this a generic email that they send to everyone they interview? Or does the recruiter actually have to be impressed for this form letter email to be sent?

I’ve gotten letters like that from companies before. You’re not really sure if it’s “thanks, but no thanks”, or if they are expressing genuine interest.

In any case. Good luck on the job hunt.
