I’d feel more considered if I’d gotten no email at all
Some think this isn’t an LLM (I still disagree), but either way I find the message to be incredibly patronizing. My effort doesn’t feel acknowledged when their not putting any effort into rejecting me.

This is a boilerplate rejection letter. Companies have been sending rejection letters like this with the same language almost verbatim for decades, long before LLMs existed.
Sorry you got rejected, but be grateful for the closure. Some companies don’t even bother, leaving you wondering how your time invested in a fourth-round interview went.
If it’s a job you actually wanted, reply and ask for some tips on how to improve as a candidate. Otherwise, I don’t really see how this has to do with work reform other than your personal preference of dispensing with superfluous language and getting to the point.

I hate that companies have to be above and beyond on rejection if they do them.
Like i’m glad they give them but, how hard is a:
Subject: Application/Interview Rejected body: Dear name, We regret to inform you that we have decided not to continue with your application/interview process due to X, We appreciate your interest in this company, HR Name
With X being the reason.

There’s no profit in it, is my cynical answer that I wouldn’t be surprised to find is actually true.
