We have several people that apply for every job we post (and there are hundreds per year). On top of that we receive resumes that clearly have nothing to do with the position as well as cover letters that have the job title wrong. Some attach these materials without actually filling out the online application.
When there's no effort put into applying for our position, I don't see the need to put effort into a reply ... And eventually a flag in our system will send them a generic rejection (approved by legal I'm sure).
On the flip side, we're currently looking for a Google-style SET to work on testing Enterprise Java software and have received almost no resumes that fit the position as we envision it ... That's a pretty clear indication that the job description we posted needs work.
EDIT: This position is still open ... My email is in my profile if you're interested.
