I have just had this reply from an agency:
Many thanks for your CV.
Owing to the large number of 'automatic response applications' we receive we regret that we are no longer able to speak with every applicant about every role.
If we are not in touch within 48hours then it is likely that you have not made our initial short-list. In which case you CV and details will be added to our core system and we will be in touch about other opportunities.
If you feel you are a particularly strong match for this position, but you have not been contacted then please do not hesitate to give me a call ...
Does this mean that they are too lazy to actually read any CVs they have been forwarded and are relying on follow up calls or has someone written an app to automatically reply to jobs advertised with certain keywords I wonder?
