Wait, what? You get rejection letters? I don't even get a "thanks, but no thanks" message.

Not generally, but 7/10 companies told me that they didn't want me after interviewing me.

nop what it means is that someone is extremely intelligant, they would label the guy as a 1.5 human (superhuman) so in effect heatherkay is super intelligant too so she would also make "1.5" so two of them makes technically "three"

I hope it's not a simple case of the combined relative intelligence of everyone involved on a project! On a number of 1.5 or 2 man contracts we have 4 or 5 people working each week, including PhD/EngDs.

They tend to state on the websites of the agencies something like "if you haven't heard from us within 5 days then unfortunately you have bee unsuccessful" I just got an "Out of office until 31st" email, I wonder if that counts?
