That actually seems like a really strong signal of something important: can people improve, if given a modest amount of guidance/support. I’d certainly be interested in hiring someone who does rather than someone who doesn’t.
But I’m also impressed that you provide feedback to candidates consistently. I’ve always thought that it would be something fairly time-consuming, even if you set up a system to provide feedback in a fairly standardized way. Would you be willing to share a bit about how you/your team does feedback for rejected job applicants?
I view our hiring process as a constant work in progress, and we look back at the application process of everyone after their time with us, the best and worst performers alike, and try figure out how we could have told ahead of time. Part of that is writing up notes. We use chatgpt to make the notes more sensitive and send them to the applicant.
Caveat: We only do this for people who show some promise of future admission.
