- keenmaster 7y agoSorry I had to repost due to the "Ask HN" tag in the title not working. See my other comment for the logic behind my question.
- muzani 7y agoIt's a lot like posting response rate. For one thing, it's a polite rejection. Politeness encourages more applicants. Not having a black hole will also encourage applicants to complete the process. There's also some fatigue/anxiety as part of a long process, which will affect the requested salary or acceptance - someone is more likely to accept a well paid job with a pleasant process than a well paid job with a tiresome process. YC, Toptal, and many universities post their acceptance rate, and it's only proven a good thing. The ambitious ones will be encouraged to try even with a low acceptance rate.
