Most big companies are terrible at recruiting. Google requires massive numbers of people so they can't spend much time or concern on any one position or one recruitee. Even my employer (non SV) can't even post positions for engineers that make any sense (which is why we get so few candidates).

There's no reason why they can auto-generate a "We have decided not to proceed with your application" email when they move your status to rejected at the very least. It costs marginally nothing.

  It does when you think you might have another position for them and you don't want to burn bridges. Which I assume it likely what they're thinking.

    Not responding burned bridges not just with him but everyone reading this, sending a polite no would have maintained them.

When McDonalds will treat minimum wage workers better than you are treating people there is no excuse.

Seems like they could spring a couple of bills for a technical writer to polish the requirements when the end result is likely to be a six digit salaried employee.
