With the sheer scale of applications that any job gets, it's not unreasonable to not follow up a CV submission and explain rejection. But if you take a candidate as far as face-to-face, you damn well should follow up. Even if they get no further than phone interview, it's good to at least give them an idea of the time frame in which a decision about the next step will be made so they can enquire if they hear nothing after that.
So many places
- are shit at recruitment
- only think of their needs and not the applicant's
- have a delusional belief that their organisation is so awesome that applicants should be grateful to have been considered at all
- have no concept of the reputational damage from their shit behaviour
- are shit at recruitment

Job hunting.
Recruiters who ghost you after an interview. Maybe I'm hideously ugly.
