Users flag and down vote for all sorts of reasons - from what I see at times, no rhyme or reason even if it's interesting or answers someone's query directly.

Users flag and down vote for all sorts of reasons - from what I see at times, no rhyme or reason even if it's interesting or answers someone's query directly. However I would think that removing the content ... new users like myself would consider flagging the thread ... I was temped to, but noted your reply here and sort of guess you're thinking about how to explain it better /fully. The FAQ outlines resubmission is frowned upon unless some time has passed, I think a year was mentioned. You have my commiserations, but you should consider perhaps it a silver lining - some people seem professional, but are burdened with a poor communication skills or management hierarchy communication latency - IMO it'd lead to annoyance / irritation somewhere down the track. At the very least an interview process should end with a kind rejection blurb.
