Personally I would choose C, it's a case of non-responsibility... I don't need such employee in my company.
This is by no means an attack on you or your organization, but I absolutely despise this knee-jerk reaction to emails, resumes or anything really that's so prevalent in the hiring sector where Hiring Managers are LOOKING for a reason not to even blink at a resume.
I get that companies want the best candidates available, what I don't get is how willing they are to shrink the pool of qualified and excellent candidates because of something resulting from human error. The absence of a subject line in an email isn't non-responsibility; as pedalpete said, his organization reached out and interviewed a guy who came an HOUR LATE. That's a death sentence in the conventional wisdom of job hunting, and look what happened.
No, the exception does not prove the rule, but I think hiring managers-if they want to hire and if this disease of near double-digit unemployment is to shrink-need to get their heads out of their asses and actually HIRE people.
The first step in this is to stop demonizing things that genuinely do not matter when put next to a resume that bleeds talent, organization and character. Missing a subject line is one of them.
