I want to give IBM—of all places—a shout-out here. I applied for a few jobs there after grad school. Every application was promptly followed up. Hiring managers and HR folks replied to emails, often within the same day. I was notified when the jobs were closed, and one hiring manager even scheduled a brief phone call to explain why they weren't hiring me and what I should do if I wanted to reapply.
