So I applied for a company. The description looked great, very modern, interesting tasks, 100% remote. Hence, I took my time and crafted a well-written, in-depth cover letter suited to the position, CV etc.
Now I got an e-mail with a link to a video message from the HR person. It is 100% generic, so they do not mention my name or the position I applied for, it is used for everyone. (Still, the person said they liked my application, lol). There is a button where I am supposed to record a video message as an answer. Is this common nowadays? I kind of cannot take this serious and do not feel appreciated at all.
